Fixed the rewrite rules a bit, primarily by trial and error, based on http://tikiwiki.org/SEFURLs - Having a "slash" in beginning of the the rewriterule didn't work, is this an apache2 thing maybe? Don't think spacing in Wiki names will work yet either. FunkyPenguin 2004-07-01 You can now find SEF URL mod in the mods.tikiwiki.org file gallery

-- A very wise post from Loyd Wood :

For the upcoming version, you say: "Search-engine friendliness: Re-write rules added so your Tiki objects can be accessed in a search-engine friendly way"

What would it take to provide better naming of tiki pages? wiki/RandomSubjectName is far better expressed as wiki/Random-Subject-Name

so that e.g. google can pick up on the individual words and index them with high priority. Most 80sTrendyAppleCaps wikis fare badly in search engines as a result; the hyphenated form should imo be the default, and that would work better with typos and Apache's mod_speling too.

thanks.

L. -- Loyd: I think spaces are now supported in object names, so: wiki/Random+Subject+Name SEWilco 2004-04-14

Disable the re-writes in a directory

You can disable the re-writes in a directory by dropping in an .htaccess file containing the following:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
          RewriteEngine Off
</IfModule>
As you probably know, this affects all sub directories.
