Overview
Why create a new URL rewriting provider?
When the native DNN rewriting provider manipulates parameters in urls, Friendlier URL Provider manipulates elements from the rewritten url - called "rewrite groups" - in order to give complete freedom to achieve better SEO.
What does it look like?

Features
- Easily install, activate, uninstall the module on a page
- Edit patterns - made of rewrite groups - thanks to a user-friendly API (see above)
- A default pattern is provided. You can edit and change groups in order to obtain the pattern you want to be applied to a single portal, page or module
- As administrator, you can keep control on the rewriting process and disable url rewritting
- 301 redirect enabled: permanently redirects all your urls to the friendlier version.
Benefits
- Using rewrite groups rather than parameters adds significant value to your urls. No more compulsary TabId or ModuleId. They are no more necessary to specify a url!
- API designed to help you with designing patterns and rewriting rules of your choice
- Page specific patterns
- Module specific patterns
- Instant reading (no delays) and writing of urls thanks to a cache memory where rewritten urls are stored
