Enable Permalinks in the admin area under general settings

For this kind of friendly url, you should use .htaccess

Hi nextpuma,

What Juan Ramón wanted to say is that it's not yet supported on OSClass and you should add your custom rules on a .htaccess files or better, into generate_rules.php (located at main folder, and later run it).

Will add support to it soon, but since there're many possibilities, it's complicated to fit all and make everyone happy.


For example, your could think that osclass.org/city is ok, but other could wanted to be osclass.org/category (as it's at the moment) osclass.org/country or region, or any other field are options that maybe someone would choose. Also, we need to think how to handle multiple params, as city+category for example.

We're working on that right now.


Thanks

ty for the explanation.

I belief the best way to handle this could be a configuration in admin-panel like the WordPress one.

Hey guys, any idea, until you will have added this feature in the admin-backend, how I can manage to rewrite site.com/city/category/.... in the generate_rules.php? I'd love to have that in my URL's. Thanks so much in advance...

i keep trying to generate a friendly url usin generate_rules.php, i put

Code: [Select]

$rewrite->addRule('^search/(.+)$/([0-9]+)/([0-9]+)/([0-9A-Za-z]+)/?(.*?)/?$', 'index.php?page=search&sCategory=$1&make=$2&model=$3&sPriceMin=$4&sPriceMax=$5');right after search rules but it doesn't make any changes!
can someone give my an idea what's wrong!

Thanks in advance.
