Geeklog Forums

Hi

I see how the URL Rewrite plugin can do this

http://www.geeklog.net/article.php/20021022234959146

instead of this

http://www.geeklog.net/article.php?story=20021022234959146

But I want to further customize my setup so that .php stuff doesn't show. Can I further change this example URL into this

http://www.geeklog.net/stories/20021022234959146

or even associate an id with a friendly name, like this

http://www.geeklog.net/stories/my-first-great-geeklog-post

Thanks for your help!

Story IDs are editable, so that part is easy.

For the rest, you may want to look into using the Apache module mod_rewrite.

So for example, if I was doing it to geeklog.net and I wanted to change pages like this:

http://www.geeklog.net/staticpages/index.php/bounties

Into this:

http://www.geeklog.net/bounties

Then the way to do that is use mod_rewrite, maybe a rule like this:

RewriteRule ^/staticpages/index.php/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)$ /$1

I just wasn't sure if this was a geeklog config thing or if it was something to handle in the server (like mod_rewrite)...
