[Use category layouts that include the fix] Post-redirect-get pattern

> You can check yourself on your own site search, I can´t reload the page without being asked to confirm the input

Reload / refresh page ? yes you will be asked by browser to confirm
- the above is normal, try clicking refresh in any website and you will be asked to confirm

"The page has expried" case
- when clicking, forward / backwards browser buttons in search / filtering form
is what is handled


> You can check yourself on your own site search, I can´t reload the page without being asked to confirm the input

I just tested it works "forward / backwards browser buttons" work as intended
no "Page has expired" message

But even if we have somewhere 1 or 2 non-updated old category layouts
- then it is these layouts that need updating

In short there is nothing to fix in our distrubution package

your old layouts do not have this new code
- you will need some custom dev work to update the layouts

I´ll focus my question in a different way:

why the search page, this one ( www.flexicontent.org/site-search.html?q=...a9f64af0c6bb8f9641c2 ), this form is made through a post method?

Joomla for example, use method get www.joomla.org/search.html?q=test
Google itself, uses method get

You never get there a "confirm resubmision"

It´s not about third party error, neither my template, because I´m using the ones from flexicontent

Hello

i used the URL that you gave, i change some form fields and submitted form

- then i click back,
and there was no message "Page has expired"

so it is working

you can change it to use get
and the form will still submit
but if you do, then you will a very long URL with ALL form fields

http://localhost/joomla3xxdev/?filter=&p=all&filter_170=&filter_2%5B1%5D=&filter_2%5B2%5D=&filter_3=&filter_5=&filter_4%5B1%5D=&filter_4%5B2%5D=&filter_10%5B0%5D=&filter_16=&filter_150%5B1%5D=&filter_150%5B2%5D=&filter_52=&filter_28%5B0%5D=&filter_30=&filter_148=&filter_32%5B0%5D=&filter_33=&filter_37%5B0%5D=&filter_44=&filter_81=&filter_88=&filter_116=&filter_140=&filter_15=&filter_158=&filter_160%5B1%5D=&filter_160%5B2%5D=&limit=5&filter_order=i.title&filter_order_Dir=ASC&option=com_flexicontent&view=category&task=&cid=19&layout=&letter=&listall=0

Hello

Joomla search form will be submited via POST
and then the search task will redirects (via a GET) to a URL that has only the non empty form fields
then you search more
then you search more

then if you click BACK the POST pages are skipped and you land to URLs created by 'GET'

I´m missing something, there are no post petitions here ( www.joomla.org/search.html?q=test&Search= ) and the form method is "post"

What are you referring to?
