Hello all, Having installed EZPublish 3.1 and spent a little time understanding it, I have come to the point of actually implementing the site structure, which is where I have some questions for those more experienced. In a normal, non URL-rewritten setup I would have folders for different sections with an index.(php, html, etc.) file in each one so that this content is the index page for the subsection. i.e.
/information --> /information/index.php /products --> /products/index.php
and then having named files within that folder as subsections
/products/new.php
/products/old.php etc thus keeping the url nice and tidy and making sense with the structure of the site.
With EZPublish, I noticed that there are folder objects, but was thinking that this is a notional idea anyway and could replace folders with objects that contain content. i.e. in the EZPublish site structure there might be;
products --> object with content
-------old -->object with content, under products -------new -->object with content, under products and so on. Of course it is possible to recreate an old style site structure but it seems pointless, since any object can act in the same way as a folder (i.e. other objects can be made it's children) So I was wondering (if any of this makes sense to you) what you would recommend as a good set up. I realise that the pretty URLs can be done with further set up, any links to tutorials of how to do this would be much appreciated. Thanks, Ben Pirt
