[Satish Babu Anupoju, modificado hace 9 años.]

Hi Team

I am working on ecommorce implementation. Where I need to form URL like liferay url format fashion : "https://www.liferay.com/about-us/newsroom/in-the-news".


As per our requirement my target url format should be like : http://www.domainname.com/location/category/sub-category/title. (This is SEO friendly url format)


Can anyone advice me how to implement this

What you need is Friendly URLs.

Hi Ravi


Thanks for sharing the link.

Got the output as mentioned in the article and getting the url format like : http://localhost:8080/web/guest/welcome/-/ems/action/getEmployee/employeeId/5?p_auth=3PFjIsW1

From the above url employeeId parameter formatted like employeeId/5 .

But as per my requirement I need to form the url pattern like : http://www.domainname.com/location/category/sub-category/title

Want to construct a url with only values ( no keys)


Please let me know if you need more clarity.

Liferay friendly urls start with /-/...

Now, <pattern>/action/{actionName}/employeeId/{empId:\d+}</pattern> in friendly url route.xml can be played with.

Why not use
<pattern>/{actionName}/{empId:\d+}</pattern>

Or anything that suits you. I am not sure whether this will work fine, but you can try.

Hi,
As Ravi has mentioned Liferay freindly URL start with start with /-/... So URL before it must be there as it is Liferay site name and page name. But you can create own customize URL in routes.xml as <pattern>/{location}/{category}/{category}/{title}</pattern>.

Your URL looks like http://www.domainname.com/web/guest/welcome/{location}/{category}/{category}/{title}. This format can be supported in SEO as Liferay's all type of URL support SEO.

Hi Syam,

There are a lot of really good examples out there on how to do some of this stuff. For example, Meera has provided a pretty thorough example on his blog: http://www.liferaysavvy.com/2014/06/liferay-friendly-url.html.

You don't actually need to specify all the implicit parameters for p_p_id, or plid etc anymore, just your own paramters that you want to make friendly. If you have a specific example that you need help with, feel free to post it here.
