Alternate path for the freetags plugin

[frodeste]

is it possible to change the path used by the freetags plugin from ../plugin/tag/ to ../tags/?

I have tried changing in the admin, but using a shorter path like /tags/ just don't seem to work.

Hi!

That's not possible easily, because s9y needs a fixed "/plugin/" pattern to detect that an external plugin takes over page control.

You could try to do it via "invisible" mod_rewrite redirection by redirectiong "/tags/..." to "/plugin/tags/..."...

Thought so. I did mess a bit with .htaccess before I posted here

I reasoning for this is that we have ../categories/. From my point of view, tags should follow same visual guideline ../tags/. It is only cosmetic, but still.

Hi!

The central difference is that categories are internal, and tags aren't...so we can't mix'n'mojo those URLs

My x-mas wish: Make this internal now?

Hi!

Hehe. The freetag plugin still has a way to go to be feature-complete; then we can talk about taking it internal. Until then it's much more useful to have it as a plugin, because then we can update it quicker.
