After sweating for some time I finally figured out why URL rewriting does not work as it theoretically should in my setup. You are using "-" as literal character in many default patterns for the Mod_Rewrite RewriteRules for Apache. However, that syntax to escape "-" has been intr...

"# BEGIN s9y" and "# END s9y" lines were markers used by s9y to determine what to replace each time That might be true, but I am changing inside the lines S9Y updates. If I move or copy them to outside I'll get conflicting duplicates/variations(*) => not good . (*) ... sort of

@stm999999999 I have the answer for you. When you configure those arrays in the local configuration file it replaces the arrays defined inside the function. It does not add to it. Hence the change from space to hyphens disappeared. You could see this as feature or as bug. (What do you think Garvin?)...

Okay, here is the final finishing touch. At least for now. In addition to the above I changed all URLs to all lowercase and also removed, respectively prohibit the following characters . , ; ! % By default characters like # & ? = which have a special meaning in an URL are dropped already. Even t...

Great!

Just saw the following Event Plugin.

That's of course the ultimate solution.

$GLOBALS['i18n_filename_from'] = array(',', '.'); $GLOBALS['i18n_filename_to'] = array('', ''); And how could I force the {$entry.link} to be all lower case (just for display purposes)? No idea if you have seen my post SEO / Permalinks / Duplicate Content Yours John Update: Looks like messing with ...

Hi folks, I just changed my permalink structure to be more SEO friendly and I'll explain how I keep old URLs working at the same time AND make sure that Google and other search engines are happy — even more happy than in the past. You find a great tip from Google at the very end of this post. Howeve...

Hmmm. Doesn't FeedBurner (or some other RSS service) visit the blog on a regular basis?... Absolutely, yes. Google's feedfetcher is the most persistent one I have ever seen.

Hi Garvin, Gimmel! I appreciate you're getting back to me. Shame on me that I didn't check the current list of available plugins first. Mobile Output plugin , good to know, I might check it someday. If that doesn't work well enough one might be able to add media detection and forwarding into the ind...

...Making the comment mail a template should be doable, I added it to the list. @johncannary: There is both a include PHP event AND sidebar plugin so that you can inject PHP code includes. Using a mail template is as fine as it can get. Great. The sidebar plugin should work fine for me. Look here ....

First: Thanks to Garvin and the team for this superb piece of software. Secondly: Thanks to the community (including the developers) for driving the development. Great suggestions already . I comment some and add others. ... Also, the static pages plugin has become way too complex compared to regula...

Hi, As I am reading through the thread "Future of S9Y" I decided to put my enhancement for email notifications in a new thread (here). Problem: * Notification email for a comment, does not contain the text of the comment. * Missing signature (required in some jurisdictions [just to play sa...

Hi Gimmel! Hi Garvin & Co.! I agree with you that S9Y is a superb piece of software. Thanks to Garvin & Company. Seems like Garvin has become a synonym for S9Y. I also appreciate that Garvin stated to some change/feature request earlier, "No way,... S9Y is about compatibility!" . A...

Hi judebert!

Thanks for the great write-up and the insights.

Let's not talk Garvin & Co. out of developing, but I am sure
they know anyway why and what they are doing it for.
