Many people recommend Links because of its flexibility, etc., and truly it seems to be a very useful software.
But the point that stops me from using it, is the length of Links' URLs.
Links is similar to Yahoo. A real example of URL:
http://dir.yahoo.com/Regional/U_S__States/California/Cities/Berkeley/Recreation_and_Sports/Outdoors/Parks
Really, I would like shorter URLs, easier to quote in e-mails, papers, documents, publications, etc.
The previous example may be:
http://my-domain.com/berkeley/parks
All this is just about an option to choose or change the URL of every new page of the directory (during the creation of a new category or section).
A new field in the creation form would be sufficient.
Of course, keeping the tree structure of categories, etc., but changing only the urls.
Thank you very much if someone knows a way to do this (if this option is possible with Links).
