Google & News Module

Hi,
First off I wanted to say how much I love CMSMS - It rocks!!!!
I posted this question in the chat area and thought i would repost it here.

Google news recently informed me that it could not read my news pages because they all had less then 3 digits as id names (ex. index.php/News/98)
I would like to know how to change it so they have at least 2 or more digits in front of them.

Note - I know very little about how to use myphpadmin

- Or -

I would love it if the Title of a news item could appear both in the Title of the page but also as the Id name of the page. (ex. index.php/nameofstory)

Thanks in advance -
Billbdesign

Oh!

i just made a post about almost the same:
http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/index.ph ... 102.0.html

I think it would also help if the news title could also be placed in the page title!
This also would help in page ranking

but my (no-index) problem still relies, now i know why.
Hope someone can follow up on this soon :-)


One other thing, there is a module for google (sitemaps)
if it could also index the news page.... that would be...!
but i know.. person who has made it... needs to... (i left a msg for him on his module page though..)  ;D

Thumbs UP for CMSMS!

Regards Rick

Rick -

Yeah, Google is fickle and I'm sure with a few tweaks this can be modified and or fixed.
