Issue Summary

I'm trying to create a menu item that links to a taxonomy result - I have tried a couple of variations. My search results are under publications/results

publications/results/taxonomy:152
Should work but gives The path '/results/taxonomy:152' is either invalid or you do not have access to it.
publications/results/taxonomy%3A152
Is silently dropped by the menu system - I think it's some XSS check
http://mydomain.com/publications/results/taxonomy%3A152
Works but is not very pretty

I read somewhere about a workaround using an alias - tried but doesn't work.
I've posted a bug report/feature request in the menu issue queue because I think it's core problem. Let's see if something happens. Otherwise I don't know.. Maybe worth bugging David to change the characters used.

I consider this critical issue, since using absolute paths would complicate many things during site development.

I have found a solution for this by accident. Add a space after the path and the Drupal menu system will be happy: "publications/results/taxonomy:152 " (without the quotes).
Let me know if it worked for you.

That appears to work for me. Have only tested one facet.

I think I figured it out try this. The key is two // behind your base path set in faceted search. Needs space after the 25

Example:

catalog//results/taxonomy:25

Solution mentioned in #7 worked perfectly. Thanks a lot. However, the solution #9 returns me to my faceted search base path.

Solution #7 also works fine for me.

But got a different problem now: If I put a link to my search result in a nested menu tree (like: products->Category1->Product1) the menu collapses as soon as I click on the result. I've been searching for days now to find a solution for this. Any ideas?

Works for me, but would be bad for SEO. Not an ideal solution. Should be resolved in some kind of manor.

I supposed it the %20 at the end of the link could be solved with Global Redirect module.

Edit: nevermind, I thought Global Redirect module removed trailing spaces. It does not.

any updates on this? I've used the solution in #7 and it works fine but would like to know if there's a more seo friendly approach
