URI issues: solved
May 9th, 2003I think it was Mart's comment that really pushed this idea into my head. Inklog will be a CMS first, and a weblog second. The goal here is to get everything to be accessible via the same methods and easily accessible via the same methods. It isn't to turn everything into a weblog entry. Therefore, ID numbered URLs are out. Every item in the CMS will have a name that is unique to its path. If a document is moved and a redirect is desired for old links, a redirect must be placed into the system. An entire category/path can be redirected if needed. If a weblog entry is posted, it should be titled as such (i.e. /weblog/20030509_Inklog). The module that handles weblog entries CAN provide predated and ID Numbered titles if that is desired by the user. However, the ID number will not be part of the Node system and will be generated independently.
Thank you to those of you who offered your comments and suggestions.
