**Installation:
|
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
Pathauto is an extension to the path module, which must be enabled.
|
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
Pathauto also relies on the Token module, which must be downloaded and
|
| 7 |
enabled separately.
|
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
1. Unpack the Pathauto folder and contents in the appropriate modules
|
| 10 |
directory of your Drupal installation. This is probably
|
| 11 |
sites/all/modules/
|
| 12 |
2. Enable the Pathauto module in the administration tools.
|
| 13 |
3. If you're not using Drupal's default administrative account, make
|
| 14 |
sure "administer pathauto" is enabled through access control administration.
|
| 15 |
4. Visit the Pathauto settings page and make appropriate configurations
|
| 16 |
For 5.x: Administer > Site configuration > Pathauto
|
| 17 |
For 6.x: Administer > Site building > URL alias > Automated alias settings
|
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
**Transliteration support:
|
| 20 |
If you desire transliteration support in the creation of URLs (e.g. the
|
| 21 |
replacement of Á with A) then you will need to install the Transliteration
|
| 22 |
module, which can be found at http://drupal.org/project/transliteration
|
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Once you've installed and enabled the module, simply go to
|
| 25 |
admin/build/path/pathauto and check the "Transliterate prior to creating alias"
|
| 26 |
box and path aliases should now be transliterated automagically.
|
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
**Upgrading from previous versions:
|
| 29 |
If you are upgrading from Pathauto 5.x-1.x to 5.x-2.x (or 6.x-2.x) then you
|
| 30 |
will probably need to change your patterns.
|
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
For content patterns:
|
| 33 |
[user] is now [author-name]
|
| 34 |
[cat] is now [term]
|
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
There may be other changes as well. Please review the pattern examples on
|
| 37 |
Administration > Site Configuration > Pathauto
|
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
If you upgraded from Pathauto 5.x-1.x directly without enabling Token
|
| 40 |
first then you will need to
|
| 41 |
1) download/install the Token module
|
| 42 |
2) disable the Pathauto module
|
| 43 |
3) re-enable the Pathauto module
|
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
Upgrade to 6.x:
|
| 46 |
Note that the settings page has moved so that it is more logically grouped with
|
| 47 |
other URL alias related items under
|
| 48 |
Administer > Site building > URL alias > Automated alias settings
|
