Martin Crockett	Tuesday 15 February 2005 4:25:28 am Hi, I have some news articles being listed on a news page. The format the links to each article are taking are: /news/<category>/<title>/<summary> This results in unnecessary text being used in the URL (in this case, the summary text). I would prefer them to look like this if possible: /news/<category>/<title> Anyone know if this possible? I've searched high and low and no found the documentation or forum messages to back it up. Thanks in advance. ;-)

kracker (the)	Tuesday 15 February 2005 10:46:13 am I tried to post this into the faq, as it is a great little nugget of eZ publish how to information, only to find that even when I'm logged into ez.no I can not post new faq entries. Could I trouble someone else who can post a new Question / Answer to the FAQ to add this information into the FAQ? cheers, //kracker thinking of eZ publish ... ;) Eyedea And Abilities : E And A : Paradise Member since: 2001.07.13 \|\| http://ezpedia.se7enx.com/
