Change 'more' in URL

Is there a way to change 'more' in URL without making changes in files; global or something?

If not, which files do I need to modify to change ALL instances of 'more' (for static pages, dynamic, span pages toolbars etc...)?

Example:

I would like to change

.../my_category/more3.html

to

.../my_category/mytext3.html

Thanks in advance!

Not by default I'm afraid. Your best bet, would be to use mod_rewrite to change it.

Code:
RewriteEngine On 
RewriteRule mytext(.*)\.html more$1.html [L]

Not guaranteed to work (I'm far from a mod_rewrite guru), but it may do Smile

Hi Andy!

I have already tried something similar, but span pages toolbar will still create links to more1/2/3.html ...

So I changed Build.pm, Page.pm and nph-build.cgi.

I know that this is not the best approach, but I hope GT will make this option available in the next version of LinksSQL.

Thanks!

You could just pass it through a global...

<%replace_next($next_span)%>

Code:
sub { 
  my $in = $_[0]; 
  $in =~ s|next(\d)|newpage$1|sg; 
  return $in; 
}

My regex isn't the best when it comes to pattern matching, but it should work :)
