hi,
im VERY NEW in PostNuke.
hope my post is in the right section.
as i surf the net,
i found a website that using PostNuke.
but ..
the linking is not using PHP , but use HTML
how can i do like that ?

eg :
instead of linking to index.php?name=Downloads ,
it will linked to Download.html

i already do some search in this forum by searching "PHP to HTML"
but it wont works.. so that is why my post is here.

hope to hear any answer soon !
thanks !

Minilogo,

Welcome to PostNuke!

What you are trying to do is use "shorturls".

There is quite alot of great information in the Wiki. You can get there from the left-hand menu on this page under documentation.

Here's the direct link:
http://communit...hortURLs.htm

The description there works fine for most people, but the exact procedure depends somewhat on your hosting provider's policies. Note too that the "Use short urls" link that this Wiki page talks about is only visible AFTER you have the .htaccess file in place.

Good Luck!
Chris

Thanks cgstevens!

i already read the documentation
but, when i placed the .htaccess in the PostNuke root directory
i keep getting an error msg saying that i dont have permission to view the index.php

does it mean mod_rewrite is not enable in the apache configuration ?
how can i check it?

I would check my host.
Could be PHP is running as CGI, in that case lot of .htacces features won't work.
