Interesting!

About 2years ago we incorporated a tracking system that is based in the URL Query string.

This was great but over time we needed to Add more {QueryOperators}={LongValueString}

We decided we needed to do something about these plain UGLY Urls.

This is was our solution!

Common and frequent Urls were allready managed so we applied Unique Ids in place of the old Urls, This was great but we still had the problem of Ugly Urls (http:// www. MySite . com/?RefrenceId={CommonRefrence}
We know that this must point to a page so we handled the Urls and Re-Wrote them like This, http:// www. MySite .com/Products/{ProductCategory}/{ProductName}.aspx

Your solution maybe different and really depends on the Url and what you currently do with it and how it is generated in the first place. (eg: Static as in hard coded or Dynamic as in algorythym created)

Anyway there is so many options.

Tracking URL Display on Showad.aspx

Hi,

I run an affiliate site that runs the classifieds starter kit. My problem is when i get a tracking url, it tends to be very long and looks ugly when displayed in URL of showad.aspx

Is there any code or way i can enter the long tracking url in Post ad and have just say "website address" as URL Display in showad.aspx?

I presume would have to make code changes in postad.cs, but do not know how. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Classifieds Starter Kit
