Friendlier URL Provider

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

  1. Easily install, activate, uninstall the module on a page
  2. Edit patterns - made of rewrite groups - thanks to a user-friendly API (see above)
  3. 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
  4. As administrator, you can keep control on the rewriting process and disable url rewritting
  5. 301 redirect enabled: permanently redirects all your urls to the friendlier version.

 Benefits

  1. 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!
  2. API designed to help you with designing patterns and rewriting rules of your choice
  3. Page specific patterns
  4. Module specific patterns
  5. Instant reading (no delays) and writing of urls thanks to a cache memory where rewritten urls are stored
