Hello all,

Clever ! Smart ! Very nice ! You rock !-)
It is sooooo KISS, it is a wonderful-simple-powerful idea

We can say that this is a way to have hierarchies without hierarchies but still hierarchies. Thanks to you, rewritting and CMSms.

wanna rewrite set alias function to do this automatically and write new .htaccess also

but I think it needs to be behind some config switch...

I hope this simplicity and flexibility feature will be in 2.0.

Did you ever find a good solution to your problem about identical aliases?

I think the suggestion made by tsw would be very nice:

...but unfortunately I have no clue about how to make the rewrite code for the .htaccess file. Any ideas, anyone?

Hello,

I have no answer but I like you have bumped this thread.
I wonder if a replace of the concept of "alias" in CMSms by true URLs would solve this ? Even in ...1.6 ?-)
