Remove anchor in url

[ghost]

Hi,

First, thank you for your excellent work.

What do you think of removing anchors ( Fragment ) from urls ?

Before push a PR i ask you ?

Sorry for my english.

Hi, thank you for your kind words :) A PR for removing anchors is fine as long as it's performant (as some users have millions of URLs) and is controllable on a per-site setting (as certain sites have frontends which depend on the anchor). Here's the part for collecting URLs and mainly here for site settings.

I can use a similar method of groupUrlsByPath

And i add a config site value similar to $hasGroupedUrls

Peoples can choose :

• group url by query string only
• group url by anchor only
• group url by query string and group url by anchor
• no group

Say me if the way is ok for you.

Ok good, maybe you can incorporate the group by URL path setting into a selection of yours like:

Group by...

• path only
• query string only
• anchor only
• path and query string
• path and anchor
• query string and anchor
• path and query string and anchor
• no group

Basically a combination of all possibilities 👍 This would be great!

I don't understand Group by URL path

It's only if we want test one url of the path ?

www.mysite.com/boots/my-boots-1.php www.mysite.com/boots/my-boots-2.php www.mysite.com/boots/my-boots-3.php

We only test www.mysite.com/boots/my-boots-1.php or www.mysite.com/boots/my-boots-2.php and on the repport we put www.mysite.com/boots/

For anchor it's ok i need to add translations .

The group by URL path is cutting off everything from the query string on, so only the scheme, host and path remains and removes possible resulting duplicates. The path includes possible file names. Is it that what you asked?
