How to shorten URI? was created by jonusa
This is the sample adress of article:

" www.mysite.com/component/mycomponent/detail/90-detroit-auto-show-2013 "

I use for as URI:

" /component/mycomponent/detail/90-detroit-auto-show-2013 "

work fine...

How can I shorten or what macro can I use to eliminate this:

" /component/mycomponent/detail/ "

So that I can only use this for as URI:

" 90-detroit-auto-show-2013 " or just "90" ( which is article ID Number )


And where and how do I implement it? I looked at Quick Guide PDF file I could not come up with solution...


* I hope I made myself clear on the issue...

Sorry,
just one question. Yu are talking about how to make short URL, so are you talking about ReDJ, or Tag Meta? This forum is related to Tag Meta, but it seems you need ReDJ. Is it so?

I am talking about "TagMeta "

How to shorten "URI"...

Can I use "/details/90" for URI instead of previous post long addy?

Hi,
there must be a misunderstaning. With Tag Meta you cannot build or manage short URLs. The field you see is just the rule to match existing URLs. URL redirections and aliases can be managed by ReDJ.

Kind regards,
Luigi

Hiya

Before I was using this into URI box (backend):

"/component/mycomponent/detail/90-detroit-auto-show-2013 "

And it was working fine..

Now I am using this: "/detail/90"

It works also... eliminates copy/paste :)

Believe me,
I still don't understand your needs... :)

You are using a shortest pattern to match. It means that any URL that contains /detail/90 (and so even /component/mycomponent/detail/90-detroit-auto-show-2013) will match, and the corresponding meta info are applied.

So, maybe you could modify your rule like follow:
/detail/90-detroit-auto-show-2013

This matches too, I guess... ;)

Best regards,
Luigi
