Re: Small question about URL rewriting

Django adds a "slug" field, which is unique, for its urls. Then you look up the content by slug instead of id Its admin interface suggests a slug, which is alterable if it is not unique. On 10/15/08, James Carman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > To be fair, I didn't find that second URL. I hand-

Re: Small question about URL rewriting

To be fair, I didn't find that second URL. I hand-crafted it. So, maybe Amazon doesn't let the search engines find those types of URLs by crawling. Wouldn't that help? On Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 7:32 AM, Witold Czaplewski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Btw... > > amazon.com is a very bad example for

Re: Small question about URL rewriting

Btw... amazon.com is a very bad example for a search engine friendly site. Duplicate content like the posted urls are more problematic than non-friendly urls. The perfect solution (unfortunately not always possible) is only one friendly or meaningful url for every unique page. Witold Am Wed, 15

When Amazon.com does something like this, they still use an id on the URL. Check out these two URLs (which are equivalent and happen to be for a book I was suggesting to someone): http://www.amazon.com/Pragmatic-Version-Control-Using-Subversion/dp/0974514063 http://www.amazon.com/dp/0974514063

Re: Small question about URL rewriting

Hi Hbiloo, I don't know of an existing working solution. A while ago some people where working on this, according to the mailing list: http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/wicket-dev/200802.mbox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] You can prefix the article title with the date (as I did on my blog), so

Hi Daan, Thanks for your quick response :). It's a really interesting article to read. I don't really want to set the ID's of my product in the URL. I was thinking to do something like this :) : http://stuq.nl/weblog/articles/create-restful-urls-with-wicket
