Friendly URL name

For a friendly URL to work for a specific page, every page or label that leads to that page must have a friendly URL name. When you create a new page from the site toolbar, the system recommends a friendly URL name. Friendly URLs take the following general form:

http://host_name/context/content_root/friendly_url_name/friendly_url_name/[!ut/p/encoded_portal_suffix]

The friendly_url_name portion of the URL is made up of the friendly URL names of all pages in the path of the page hierarchy. The hierarchy begins at the content root and ends with the page for which you want to give your users a friendly URL.

For example, you have a page that is named Products and it has a friendly URL name of products. The Products page has a child page that is named Appliances and has a friendly URL name of appliances. To access the appliances page, site visitors can type the following friendly URL into the browser address field:

http://www.host_name/wps/portal/products/appliances
