Hi Patrick

http://docs.google.com/View?docid=dd33gg45_3f8j96p

Thats the link to the tutorial

http://download.bednarik.org/URITransformer.pdf

Thats the one to Jans detailed description of cooluris functions and how it
works - starting from page 19 - It is his Thesis.

Migrating is easy as jan made it possible to keep the speakingURL field from
RealUrl. So if you have used it before you can continue to use it in
cooluri. The best would be of course to make first a complete backup of your
RealURL paths. As Cooluri has got an "oldLink" field which links to the
"newLink" field even old URLs could be kept.

Simply install Cooluri on a demo installation and write some paths into the
cache. Then you see how they are stored. If you are using a Multidomainsite,
then check the multidomain checkbox in the cooluri setup. Then the domain
record will be placed infront of the URL. This way you can run many
multidomains in one Tree keeping even the menustructure from top. Like
having a "SiteMap" domain which shows all Pages of all your domains in the
trees and then having new domain-root records in subtrees.

Try it it has lots of features already build in and features you won't get
at URL - like skipping Pathsegments in the URL when the Pathsegment would be
in the middle of an URL. An interesting feature if you have stored i.e. your
contact/info/tipafriend ... in a subfolder and don't want the subfolder to
be displayed in the URL. Simply check the checkbox for skipping this page in
the URLPathcreation and you are done.

If you need help setting cooluri up Jan and I and guess even others by now
would be glad to help you! If you get an idea what could be even be made
better in cooluri then make a request to Jan before starting an own
extension of an extension. This will help to keep cooluri as a very solid
SINGLE Extension to rewrite URLs in a seofriendly way.
