Hello,
I am trying to get the "id=" in front of my article IDs as per the instructions on docs3.regularlabs.com/articlesanywhere/g...m-joomla3-to-joomla4 . I also click on "regular expressions".
Suche: (\{article(?:-[a-z0-9-_]+)?) ([0-9]+)\}
Replace: \1 id="\2"}
But nothing happens after clicking on "Search".
I tried it in Chrome and Firefox.
Search/replace without regular expressions works.
What might be the problem for me?

I just see that there are some more problems:
- Cache Cleaner button is not displayed
- Better-Preview also not
After migrating from Joomla 3 to Joomla 4 it also shows me error messages after a library of Regularlabs should be missing. After I reinstalled all extensions, the error message was gone. But apparently something is still missing, because the Regular-Labs-Extensions do not work properly ...
I have created a SuperUser account, if you like to have a look ...

Better Preview is not available for Joomla 4. There is Better Frontend Link though:
regularlabs.com/betterfrontendlink
Did you reinstall all extensions after your upgrade to Joomla 4?
What exactly is now not working?
Peter Bödeker
Peter Bödeker
Yes. I reinstalled some things, cleane caches etc. and now the "Cache Cleaner - Button" and the Frontendlink work.
But still the regular-Expressions in the DB-Replacer not.
Other things, pure words for example, are replaced without problems.

I just tried your exact search and replacement on my setup, and it works fine:
You only gave me the admin credentials, but not the URL of your website 🙂
Can you also give me (s)ftp access so I can take a deeper look?

Interesting: In the article
www.blueprints.de/selbsterkenntnis/tageb...schreiben-tipps.html
the old code {articles 2733} ... still works (Include "Glückstagebuch").

Yes, I would need ftp access to see what is going on under the hood.

That just gives me access to an empty FTP folder.

It looks like your version of MySQL has issues with certain Regular Expressions formats.
And it keeps running into a "'repetition-operator operand invalid' from regexp" error.
In your case I recommend you do this in 2 replacements.
First:Replace with:
And then:Replace with:
(The second one doesn't seem to be present in your content. So just the first one will be enough.)

Peter Bödeker
Thank you, that works!
Do you have a solution for multiple items, too? For example: {articles 4044,2691,2641,3909}
(still working, see www.blueprints.de/beziehungen/erwartungen-partnerschaft.html )

Pretty much same idea.
Replace with:
Peter Bödeker
Peter Bödeker
That doesn´t work. The replacer finds no itmes.
PS: On docs3.regularlabs.com/articlesanywhere/p...tags/output-settings I see "publish_up, publish_down" in the chapter "Ordering". On some other site, too. That should be replaced with publish-up etc., or not?

I just tried that exact thing on your site:Remember to switch on the Regular Expressions option.
By the looks of it, you are not using any ordering attributes with values containing underscores anywhere.
Peter Bödeker
Peter Bödeker
Another fault by me 🙁 - I forgot to swith on. No all articles-integrations are correct.
I go further. The underscore in offset_headings="... is still ok, right?

The underscore stuff will still work. But might not do in some future release.
So it is up to you wether you want to replace all those.

Thank you. With your help I was able to update everything. I was also able to update all {module 123} with {module id="123"} right away. .
You know that in the articles_anywhere documentation there are still a lot of underscores with the instructions? E.g. at docs3.regularlabs.com/articlesanywhere/p...s/filters#categories
Many greetings

The search string is found in 460 row(s).By the looks of it, you are not using any ordering attributes with values containing underscores anywhere.
