I currently use domain.com/index.php?bla=bla, but I want to change it for the sake of Search Engines. I also use Wordpress, which cuts up urls to domain.com/category/post-title. I'm amazed at this. I checked in FTP and there is no directory of category or post title. How is this done? Any Pointers? What is it called?
admin panel > options > permalinks check the option for 'custom, specify below' and input the following into the box /%category%/%postname% you must have your .htaccess writable for it to work automatically
lol. Sorry, I wasn't descriptive enough. I know it works in wordpress, but I want to apply it to other websites of mine that don't use wordpress.
oh...lol... in that case i'm not much help... have you looked at the .htaccess file that you have for wordpress to see if you can duplicate the coding for another site?
Yeah I looked at it and I had no idea on what the hell it was. lol. it was one long line of code. I usually modify the .htaccess files for blocking/redirecting referrers and stop bandwith stealing but this stuff is too complex for me. I looked at apache stuff and I swear I only understood how to turn on the RewriteEngine which is RewriteEngine On lol.
