Will Drupal have a similar plug in or extension? |
A quick overview of Drupal's URL structure:
Drupal default URLs: http://example.com/?q=node/123 Drupal "clean URLs":
http://example.com/node/123
Drupal comes with clean URLs. If your host supports them, just enable them in the control panel.
Drupal Path Module:
http://example.com/your-custom-title
The Path Module comes with Drupal. Just enable it in Admin -> Modules. It allows you to create a custom URL for each node ("page") on the site. The Global Redirect Module (mentioned above) will automatically create a 301 redirect from
http://example.com/node/123 to
http://example.com/your-custom-title Drupal Pathauto Module:
http://example.com/automatic-page-title
The Pathauto Module expands the features of the Path Module by making the custom URLs automatic. You can base the URL generation on the post title, post ID, category, category path, or many other aspects of the node ("page").
For example, if you had a site about cars and wanted URL structure like
http://example.com/dealers/los-angeles/ferrari -- Drupal could create that automatically for you based on the taxonomy ("categories") you chose. See this
Drupal taxonomy tutorial for details on how to set it up.
