Hi,

I want to use friendly URL to make my web site SEO friendly.

I have added friendly URL rules for all the pages. All the pages of web site contain its respective friendly name.

Ex:
The Contact Us page having tabid 120, so I have added a rule to friendly url as below.

LookFor: .*/ContactUs.aspx(.*)
SendTo: ~/Default.aspx?TabId=120$1

The problem is when page link shown in menu it shown as www.website.com/tabid/120/default.aspx instead of the friendly name www.website.com/ContactUs.aspx.

How can I modify/configure the menu to show the friendly name?

Is it possible write a rule in friendly Url or Request filter to change the www.website.com/tabid/120/default.aspx to www.website.com/ContactUs.aspx?

 Anyone have some working script or ideas on how to implement this. 

Thanks,
Mahesh

Hi Baatezu,

Thanks for your replay. You may have to get the question properly. Please go through the mail, I have tried to explain the problem again with proper example. The link provides information regarding, how to add friendly url rule which I am already using / know.

My question is, How I can modify or configure the DNN menu so it use the friendly name of the page to show the page.

For example:

You have created a page which having tabid = 120. You have also added a friendly url rule in HostSettings => Friendly Urls (SiteUrls.config). While creating the page you have checked the "Include In Menu?", so the page link will shown in DNN menu.

Problem is the when I click the page link in menu it uses the URL with tabid instead of that the friendly name of the should be used.

That mean when I link the page link in menu it redirects to www.website.com/contactus/tabid/120/default.aspx instead of www.website.com/ContactUs.aspx.

Is it possible to achieve the aforementioned functionality using Friendly Url or Request Filter?

Can we write rule to change the traditional url (Url with tabid) to friendly one.

Please help if anyone have some working script or ideas on how to implement this.

Thanks,
Mahesh

I have one easy but manual process for adding the "Friendly url" on your menu.

try

(1) Add the Friendly url tag in your web.config. (store.aspx points to tabid=55

RewriterRule>LookFor>.*/store.aspx</LookFor>SendTo>~/default.aspx?tabid=55</SendTo>RewriterRule>

(3) Add another page but set it as external url i.e. http://yoursite.com/store.aspx"
