[support] Backlinks and URL aliases

[Lev Lafayette]

Hello fellow Drupalites,

I have a Drupal 6 install with Views for an internal website. I would like to add the backlinks functionality.

I have enabled Drupal's core search module as that is what backlinks calls. The site has been reindexed since enabling Backlinks in Views and cron has been updated.

Following a bit of testing it seems an absolute URL path is required in any links rather than path aliases. 

So instead of adding a friendly "link-to-node-2" as a URL path alias, for backlinks to function I need to add https://example.com/drupal6/node/2

This is not good. Does anyone know of alternatives?

Thanks in advance,


Lev
