This post is to announce the release of the iFinity Url Master version 1.14
This new release contains changes to make the module compatible with DNN 5.1. The new release is also backwards compatible with DNN 4.6.x -4.9.x versions.
Features in the new version include
- ability to run with no file extensions at all, not even a terminating / for DNN sites
- new Urls for terms, privacy, login and register (literally /terms, /privacy, /login, etc)
- new User Profile rewrite option. This exciting new development allows any DNN site with virtually any DNN module containing a user profile page to replace a long, complicated Url with a simple, short url based on the username or display name of the user.
You can see an example of this where I've converted the DNN Forum user profile page here :

You can also see this in action at the pokerdiy.com site, which has had all the user profile urls converted : eg http://www.pokerdiy.com/rod.aspx

Vanity User Profile Urls in DotNetNuke with Url Master
Converting your site to use simple, clean User Profile urls is as simple as choosing which page your user profile module is on, and applying the changes. It can even 301 redirect all your old user profile urls to the new, shorter version.
All existing users of the Url Master module are invited to upgrade to 1.14 by downloading the install package from http://www.ifinity.com.au/Products/Url_Master_DNN_SEO_Urls
Any new users are also invited to download the free trial of the software and try it out.
