Install Time: 5min
Install Difficulty: easy
Description: Make clean URLs for WeBid
Demo: Used Wiiu
Files/List of changes

The pretty urls must be made manually, otherwise the WeBid code structure would have to be totally re-written; and that is very expensive. This mod_rewrite can be used as a rough substitute until a better solution is made.

This mod allows urls like this:

Code:

http://yoursite.com/item.php?id=1

to be accessed like this:

Code:

[url]http://yoursite.com/item-name-1

How to install:

Download the Pretty URLs mod and upload it to the WeBid root installation, overwritting browse.php, item.php, and .htaccess files

How to make a pretty URL:

To make a pretty url, you will need to know the item's name and the item's id number given by WeBid when you created the item. The format of a pretty url is:

Code:

http://yoursite.com/item-name-id#

It is the item's name separated by hyphens, with the WeBid generated id at the very end. You can find the item's id# by looking at its normal url, for example:

Code:

http://yoursite.com/item.php?id=2

The item id number here is 2

Category pretty urls can also be made along the same lines.
For example,

the category link:

Code:

http://yoursite.com/browse.php?id=204

can be written as:

Code:

http://yoursite.com/products/category-name-204

notice that unlike items, "/products/" is needed for categories.
