Create Friendly Url

Hi,

I have hundreds of records in my database table. I created a feature which shows details of records according to ID from query string. And I want to create a Friendly Url for all records.

So, how is it possible?

Thanks

Re: Create Friendly Url

Sanket,

Do you want to allow a user to edit the friendly URL, or is this a simple one-time automation process?

Hi Indigo,

Thanks for your reply.

In my case it's simple one-time automation process for existing records, but when new record is created, at that time it should also create new friendly URL for that also.

Re: Create Friendly Url

The best place for you to start is this article: Using Friendly Urls in Custom Features - when you're following through, and sorting out all the details, pay special attention to the FriendlyUrl class, and the FriendlyUrl table in the mojoPortal database.  I've done this for a custom feature, just like what you've described; the friendly URL is generated as a "suggested url" in the UI, and then submitted when the record is created for the feature.  As far as updating existing records; you may be best off writing a one-time custom SQL script for that, depending on what DB you're using, and what your comfort level is.
