As a senior security CMS website operator, I am fully aware that a clear and efficient static rules are crucial for the SEO performance and user experience of a website.AnQi CMS provides powerful pseudo-static functions, allowing us to highly customize URL structures according to actual needs.Today, let's delve deeply into the page number variable in customizing the static rules of the AnQi CMS{page}The correct way to use it.

Anqi CMS static rules and their importance

The technique of rewriting dynamic URLs to more readable and search engine friendly static URLs is called pseudo static.In Anqi CMS, the pseudo-static feature can help us build URLs that are logical, easy to remember and share, which is not only beneficial for search engine crawling and ranking, but also enhances users' trust and ease of use on the website.AnQi CMS provides a variety of built-in static page modes for selection, and also opens up the configuration of custom static page rules to meet more personalized needs.

In custom rules, we will use a series of predefined variables such as{id}（Data ID）、{filename}（Custom data link name）、{catname}（Custom category link name）、{catid}(Category ID),{module}The model table name, etc. While for the pagination processing of the list page, Anqi CMS introduces a special variable:{page}.

Understand the pagination page number variable{page}the function

In website operation, content lists are usually divided into multiple pages to avoid the content of a single page being too long, affecting loading speed and reading experience.When the user clicks 'Next page' or jumps to a specific page number, the URL should clearly reflect the current pagination state.{page}The variable is born for this, it represents the page number of the list page.

Integrate correctly in the pseudo-static rules{page}Variables can ensure that each page has a unique and semantically meaningful URL. For example, the second page of an article list, its URL might be from/article/list.htmlchanges to/article/list-2.htmlOr/article/list/page-2This depends on the rules we define. A clear URL structure is crucial for search engines to understand the depth and navigation structure of a website, and it also helps users determine their location through the URL.

Use correctly{page}Syntax and practice of variables

A safe CMS custom pseudo-static rule is about{page}the use of variables has specific syntax requirements. The core is,{page}variables must be enclosed in a pair of parentheses, for example(-{page}). This design is for flexibility, it makes the page number part optional. This means that when on the first page of the list, the page number information can be omitted from the URL (for example/article/list.html), and the page number information will be explicitly displayed in the URL from the second page (for example/article/list-2.html)

The following are some common scenarios where usage{page}is an example of the pseudo-static rule of variables:

  • Page pagination on category list page: When we need to set up a pseudo-static rule for a list page of a certain content category and support pagination, we can use a configuration similar to the following:category===/{module}/{catname}(-{page}).htmlIn this example,{catname}Represents a custom link name for categories. When browsing the first page, the URL may look like/article/news.html; When browsing the second page, the URL changes to/article/news-2.html.

  • Pagination of the tag list page: For a list page filtered by a specific tag, the pagination rule can be defined as follows:tag===/tag/{tagname}(-{page}).htmlOr, if the rule is based on Tag ID:tag===/tag-{id}(-{page})Here, the URL on the first page might be/tag/seo.htmlor/tag-1.htmland the second page will be/tag/seo-2.htmlor/tag-1-2.html.

  • pagination on the home page or other model list page: Although the document mainly targetscategoryandtagexamples were given, but{page}Variables also apply to other lists that support pagination. For example, if your website has a general article list homepage and needs pagination, the rules may be similar to: archiveIndex===/articles(-{page}).htmlThis, the second page of the article's homepage may be/articles-2.html.

It should be emphasized that the brackets(-{page})The content in it, including the dashes, can be guaranteed{page}Adjusting the variable within the enclosed premise. For example, you can also write(page/{page})to generate/article/news/page/2such a URL, but make sure it is consistent with your overall URL design. The key is{page}It is recognized as a pagination variable, and its wrapping structure allows this part to be omitted when the first page is displayed.

After configuration is complete, please make sure to save in the pseudo-static rule management interface on the background, and perform detailed testing on the various list pages on the website's front end, to ensure that pagination links are generated and accessible correctly, and no 404 errors have occurred.
