modify url for news items on search results page
modify url for news items on search results page
I put in an installation of cmsms for a company, and it's running on a Windows box. URL rewrites are in place for pretty urls. This company also has a news feed section of the site that runs separately from the cmsms install, and that news feed section has coopted the http://thisdomain.com/news/ path. The news module is used for press releases, and the url rewrites are working for this on the main page for press releases, which is newsroom. Problem is that the search results show the press releases like this http://thisdomain.com/news/15/54this-press-release, and that doesn't work. I've poked around, run searches, and tried to figure this out, but I'm getting nowhere. It seems to me that it should be managed in the search results template, but I sure can't get things working. Anybody else had this problem? I'll sure appreciate any and all.
Re: modify url for news items on search results page
could it be a conflict between the News module, which uses the /news/ path and the external news feed that also uses a /news/ path? Can you rename the external feed so it uses something other than /news/? The news module will always use the /news/ directory path in the URL.
Or, try CG Blogs instead of News for the press releases. It allows you to specify the path, so you could use /press-releases/ instead of /news/

Re: modify url for news items on search results page
That's a great suggestion on using blogs instead of news. This company won't budge on renaming the other news section that runs outside cmsms, even though that would be the easy path to take. Thanks for the input!
