Friendly URLs in Moveable Type
Pinder over at Blogzilla suggested this method of creating friendly (human-readable) URLs with Moveable Type:
1) Click on Edit Blog Configuration to pull up the config screen.
2) Make sure you have “Individual” selected as an archive type (this will cause each blog post to be saved as a separate document for archiving).
3) In the Archive File Template for “Individual”, enter the following:
<$MTEntryTitle dirify="1"$>.html
This causes the filename of each post to be based upon a “dirified” version of the post title, rather than the post entry ID. For example, a post with the title “javascript pool game” becomes “javascript_pool_game.html” instead of “00063.html”
