He's just got a custom hack for PostNukes ShortURL's by the look of that. We have an adaptation for MD-Pro, but it works slightly differently. You need apache running with mod_rewrite enabled, more information can be found HERE |

If the top mentioned url structure is possible -
and if md has a adaptation please could you let me know where to find it - or is what you mean above a required change to the htaccess file ?

Our adaptation is the default ShortURL's (aka AutoURL's) feature, as used to rewrite to either .htm/.html/.phtml. If you want a structure similar to the first poster you'll need to enable ShortURL's then edit your .htaccess with some custom rewrite rules, certainly not an easy task for most people. |

... or at least to have an address like http://mysitename/article-name.phtml ?
Did you manage to modify the .htaccess file to support such a thing ? and would it be possible to do this without any change in the providers' Apache config files which you cannot access ?
I did not manage and I was wandering if someone else with more coding skills did this ? For search engines it would be an "extra-bonus".
Thanks |

Hello,
Even i want to do the same so that the links of the articles come up as http://mysite.com/article_name.html or phtml anything will do. I've succesfully made htaccess files for my own scripts but the one which is supplied with the mdpro is a bit too complicated for me. Can someone please help me out with this?
Thanks. |
