Links on tabs turned into /user/%/edit, /user/%/contact, node/%/edit, admin/structure/types/%/fields, etc. Also, the links on Administration Menu module have the same issue.

Here's what I did so far.

  1. I've cleared all cache via Admin Menu -> Flush all cache, via Development -> Performance and via emptying MySQL cache_* tables. Didn't solve.

  2. I noticed that tabs are themed by the menu_local_tasks() function. I traced the function to includes/menu.inc, where I found the following snippet, which makes me think it might be related to this function.

 

* For example, the ancestors of node/12345/edit are:
 * - node/12345/edit
 * - node/12345/%
 * - node/%/edit
 * - node/%/%
 * - node/12345
 * - node/%
 * - node

UPDATE: Where is '%', of the above URLs, being populated? I want to be able to trace it.

  • and what happens when you click on node/%/edit ? These are menu router items which i believe you already know.

  • It shows that the page could not be found. I have no clue what menu router items are.

  • Where does '%' get populated?

  • menu router is an entry to register a particular path. node module registers node/%/edit, node/%/revisions, node/%, etc paths so it can use arguments in place of "%" sign. By default, when you see a menu, you should not see the "%" sign. Instead, these paths should be actual paths with value replaced.

  • You should read about wildcard in menu system. api.drupal.org/api/drupal/modules!system!system.api.php/… . So in case of node/%/edit the % can be replaced by an integer and that integer can be passed as argument to the page callback or access callback. You can also have wildcard autoloaders like node/%node/edit now in this case %node will pass that value to node_load function. Read the hook_menu function for more information. Also refer to drupal.org/node/102338 for more examples.

    good that you found the solution. Hence it is said NEVER HACK DRUPAL CORE ;-) I think that may be the reason that you also got a downvote for the question.

    ...now that I'm thinking, I should of phrase the q'n to ask what was causing the issue, not why it happened. Oh well, better answer some questions to make up for the negative reputation!
