Hi,

i'd like to know how to avoid the following url, when programming modules
http://localhost/KoobooTest/Articles/?ModuleUrl=%28RZVWZ%29%2FHome%2FBrowse~~genre%3DDisco%2F%28HP4ZV%29%2FStoreManager

In the previous example i have added two modules (same module but two entry point) in the same page and kooboo encode all the variables in the same querystring key named "ModuleUrl".
This url is not so loveble for search engine.

Can you tell me wich is the best way for bypass this problem?

Than you,
Gino

Thanks for your reply.

I already tried that, but the original url
http://localhost/KoobooTest/Articles/?ModuleUrl=%28RZVWZ%29%2FHome%2FBrowse~~genre%3DMetal
became the following
http://localhost/KoobooTest/Articles/(ZRB37)/Home/Browse~~genre%3dMetal

For SEO reason my url could be similar to:
http://localhost/KoobooTest/Articles/(ZRB37)/Home/Browse/genre/Metal
or best
http://localhost/KoobooTest/Browse/genre/Metal

I was wondering that could be possibile to create a kooboo page with each module entry point, but looking the reply of the other forum post, this is difficult because is not possibile to pass parameter (classic id), to the module.

Is there a trick to solve this issue?

Thank you,
Gino

Yes i have tried but i don't understand what i must to write into routes.config to transform the url in:

http://localhost/KoobooTest/Browse/genre/?Metal
Home is the controller, Browse the Action e genre is the parameter for the action.
Maybe the problem are in the values that i set in both routeType and dataTokens.

My last change was the following:

<add name="ModuleRoute" url="{controller}/{action}" routeType="Kooboo.CMS.Sites.Extension.Module.ModuleRoute,Kooboo.CMS.Sites">
<defaults controller = "Home" action = "Browse"></defaults>
<dataTokens Namespaces="CmsModule.Controllers"/>
</add>

Could you tell me how i can add the route?
Thanks

Hi Jifeng,
thank for your reply, but the route does not work for me.

These are my routes:
<routes>
<add name="ModuleRoute" url="{controller}/{action}/{genre}" routeType="Kooboo.CMS.Sites.Extension.Module.ModuleRoute,Kooboo.CMS.Sites">
<defaults controller = "Home" action = "Browse" genre=""></defaults>
<!--<constraints genre="\d+"></constraints>-->
<dataTokens Namespaces="MyKoobooModule.Controllers"/>
</add>
<add name="Default" url="{controller}/{action}" routeType="Kooboo.CMS.Sites.Extension.Module.ModuleRoute,Kooboo.CMS.Sites">
<defaults controller = "Home" action = "Index"></defaults>
<dataTokens Namespaces="MyKoobooModule.Controllers"/>
</add>
</routes>

and this is the generated url when I try create an ActionLink for the specific route
http://localhost:6592/Index/index/?ModuleUrl=%28List%29%2FHome%2FBrowse%2FJazz

Could you teel me what is the problem?

Again thanks,
Gino

Hi,
No, it is not what I expect.. the url that kooboo create is the following

http://localhost:53543/Kooboo/dev~Kooboo/TestPage/?ModuleUrl=(3TNPH)%2FHome%2FDetail%2F3

The above url is created using your News Controller/Views avilable in visual studio template.
Even if the routes.xml contains my new route:
<add name="ModuleRoute" url="{controller}/{action}/{id}" routeType="Kooboo.CMS.Sites.Extension.Module.ModuleRoute,Kooboo.CMS.Sites">
<defaults controller = "Home" action = "Detail" id=""></defaults>
<dataTokens Namespaces="TestModule.Controllers"/>
</add>

..the Url contains additional info, as the module url, and the module controller/view names are encoded.
I have added the module into a new page using your entry point Home/Categories.
The firts page (that shows the categories) is showed with the correct page url, when i click over a specific news (so moving to Detail View), the url became:
http://localhost:53543/Kooboo/dev~Kooboo/TestPage/?ModuleUrl=(3TNPH)%2FHome%2FDetail%2F3

I think that for many reason the url should sound like:
http://localhost:53543/Kooboo/dev~Kooboo/TestPage/Home/Detail/3

Is it possible?
I hope that i have explained correctly my needs.

Thanks,
Gino

Ok I understand the problem... now my url is http://localhost:53543/Kooboo/dev~Kooboo/TestPage/(3TNPH)/Home/Detail/3

Now my last question.. where can i set a friendly name for 3TNPH?

Thanks,
Gino
