URL Rewriting

Hi,
How can I remove the ID and the .aspx from the link?

thx

You will need to keep the ID, but you can remove the .aspx;

please goto Administration > Configuration > Global Setting >SEO/Display

Change your URLrewrite to something like : {0}Products/{1}/{2}

You will also need to update URLrewrite.config

Do this: ^~/Products/([0-9]*)/([\w-]*)

and your URL should look like: http://Whatever.com/Products/1/Mikes-Biography

Hey Mike,
thank you for your reply.
I tried your way, but after I removed the .aspx, I got the 'page not found' error.

Please make sure you have changed the NopCommerceStore/URLrewiting.config like so:

<add name="ProductDetailsRewrite" virtualUrl="^~/Products/([0-9]*)-([\w-]*)"
         rewriteUrlParameter="ExcludeFromClientQueryString"
         destinationUrl="~/Product.aspx?ProductID=$1&amp;$3"
         ignoreCase="true" />

Thanks, mike..

I did, I removed the .aspx.. from the urlrewriting.config file

Hey Mike, still giving the same error

Woops made a mistake:

<add name="ProductDetailsRewrite" virtualUrl="^~/Products/([0-9]*)/([\w-]*)" rewriteUrlParameter="ExcludeFromClientQueryString" destinationUrl="~/Product.aspx?ProductID=$1&amp;$3"    ignoreCase="true" />

if you have done as I said it should work, have you changed it in administration?

Hey Mike,
No luck so far. Here's what I did:

in the administration:
{0}Products/{1}/{2}

in urlrewriting.config:
<add name="ProductDetailsRewrite" virtualUrl="^~/Products/([0-9]*)/([\w-]*)"
         rewriteUrlParameter="ExcludeFromClientQueryString"
         destinationUrl="~/Product.aspx?ProductID=$1&amp;$3"
         ignoreCase="true" />


Error when the link is: /Products/63/best-grilling-recipes
Works when I add .aspx: /Products/63/best-grilling-recipes.aspx

Sorry to bother with that...

Sorry my mistake, hecktic day going on holiday tonight!

if you have access persuming on iis7 you will need to pass all values throught ASP.NET ISAPI extension so you will need to set this Application extension mapping.

if with a hosting company you will need to ask them for assistance.

hope this helps.

mike..

thank you for your help
