URL rewrite mod

[MikeMike]

It's based on phplinkdirectory-2.0.0rc4. Maybe someone could post here if it also works on later versions.

Anyway, I had this mod done so I could have my categories appear to be one directory level higher than the original rewrite. I believe that Google is giving less pagerank for lower directory levels.

Now there are 3 options for URL's:

Category:
mydomain.com/index.php?c=2
mydomain.com/category1/
mydomain.com/category1.html

Subcategory:
mydomain.com/index.php?c=4
mydomain.com/category1/subcategory1/
mydomain.com/category1/subcategory1.html

Change the setting through admin/system/edit settings/directory

Regards
Mike

Edit by Boby:
During the forum change from phpBB to vBulletin some attachments could not be imported and some failed.
I think this is the original MOD uploaded by MikeMike and because of many requests for this mod I've re-uploaded it.
If this is not MikeMike's MOD, please let me know and I will remove it.

Hi, I added it to your post as well. Thanks for the addition. This is a great option for people, so their directory is not the same as everyone else. I want to emphasize to SEOs that it really helps to create urls/pages that are different. If it is the same as everyone else, there is always a chance google could give decreased weight in the future. A good example of this is how phpbb individual topic pages get a reduced pagerank.

He did basically what I started to do, nice.

I'll work this into a downloadable mod for RC5.

Though what I would've added was the ability to change the extension (".html") in the admin, rather than it be hard coded.

How does that sound?

Thanks

Sounds good because otherwise you would soon start hearing "but they told me .htm is better than .html", and that sort of stuff .
On a more serious note, it is quite low on my own list, but many people will also want mydomain.com/category_subcategory_subsubcategory.html. Worth of consideration whether it is doable right while you are at it.

This is an alternative to the regular mod rewrite that is already available.

Die 1. Seite ist OK.

Bsp.: Computer_Internet/Webkataloge.html
aber wenn man auf die 2 Seite klickt: Previous [1] 2 Next dann ist die

Url: Computer_Internet/Webkataloge.html?p=2

das ist nicht gut.

Was kann ich machen, damit die URL zum Beispiel so dargestellt wird ?
Z.B.: Computer_Internet/Webkataloge-2.html

Hello Forum,

first excuse my bad english...I hope you understand me..

I tested this mod and got a problem with it:

The url endings on the categories are with ".html" and working good , but if i click on a subcategory nothing happens, The script only reloads the actual Page.

Can someone help me to fix this problem?

THX :?:

Hi.
But I have a problem with the sub folder (it’s just work in the main folder)

I would like to asked you, how did you do that ?
