[FI-DD]

Name: Mod Rewrite
Author: FI-DD
CuteNews Compatibility: 1.3.6 - * (no incompatibility reported yet)
Description: The following hack is my approach to create search engine friendly urls using mod_rewrite.
The big advantage of my code is its very easy and fast way of installing it.
Compared to other solutions which needed editing of lots of code you can install/uninstall my hack in less than a minute.
V1: The hack will produce urls like path_to_cute/post/8273645283-2.html (full story link) or path_to_cute/postpage/3.html
V2: For example: "This is my news title" will show as yourdomain.com/this-is-my-news-title.html
Requirements: Your server must support mod_rewrite and .htaccess files to get this working.

When you go to your news page for the first time the script should create the .htaccess file and change the look of the urls as explained above.
