I am pretty sure this was already addressed in another topic.

yes i did asked ...but no one reply me how to do this..

m still stuck with this..wondering if there is any module for this ..is there ??

No. There are no modules. It's done with the apache .htaccess file in the root of your site. .htaccess is an Apache server thing and if you do a google search, howtos on .htaccess rewrites are available everywhere.

It was also mentioned that you can't add the category to the url. The current url does not have the category in it. You can't rewrite something to include something that is not in the url to begin with.

So. Like this?

Thing is and i am sure your not aware of this. The article can still be accessed using it's origional url.

Even that is still a rewrite. The actual non permalink url to all modules that use a m in the url can still be accessed using it's non permalink version. Like so.

You can't stop the other two.

So again as i have in the past i will tell you again. It's all pointless.

ok ..i will use the default settings..thanks for reply..
