Issue with channel name in url

    Hi,

    Experiencing a somewhat odd issue. I could fix this with a conditional in the template I assume, but I feel like I shouldn’t have to.

    Anyway, I built the website for an online literary journal that went live in February - http://baltimorereview.org

    This was my first dive into EE, and I’m super happy with it. The journal releases a new issue every season. I have it set up so that each issue is a new channel and each entry can be categorized by its type (poetry, fiction, etc.)

    Today, I just made the spring issue live and noticed when making a sitemap that it was producing links to the Winter 2012 contributors under the Spring 2012 issue.

    For example - rather than:
    http://baltimorereview.org/index.php/winter_2012/contributor/devin-murphy (CORRECT)
    I was getting:
    http://baltimorereview.org/index.php/spring_2012/contributor/devin-murphy (WRONG)

    I figured this was just an issue with the sitemap generator, but when I tried the link, it worked. Shouldn’t this link not work? The entry was only entered in the one channel. Thanks for your help!

    Hello portstreetdesign,

    Can you show me the code that is generating these links?

    The link you describe under the conditions you describe should not work, but the code may tell me more.

    Cheers,

    Never mind, just a template issue. Thanks for offering to help!
