In AnQi CMS, implementing a custom URL is a key factor in website SEO optimization and improving user experience. Among them,{filename}Variables play a core role in constructing these friendly URL structures. As an experienced Anqi CMS website operations manager, I will elaborate in detail.{filename}How a variable is automatically generated and made effective when configuring a custom URL.

filenameThe nature and function of the variable

{filename}A variable is a dynamic placeholder in the Aanqi CMS static URL rule, representing a unique, readable, and search engine friendly identifier for content items (such as documents, categories, single pages, or tags).This identifier is typically the processed result of the content title, aiming to replace traditional numeric IDs or scrambled parameters, making the URL more semantic and thus enhancing the professionalism and accessibility of the website.

filenameAutomatic generation mechanism

When you create or edit content in the Anqi CMS backend, such as a document, a category, or a single page, the system will automatically try to generate one for the content自定义URLThis process has intelligent characteristics:

First, AnQi CMS will automatically convert the title you enter into a URL-friendly string. The document clearly states,自定义URL会根据你输入的文档标题，自动根据拼音生成.This means that if you enter a Chinese title, the system will convert it to the corresponding pinyin and remove special characters, for example, “安企CMS文档” may be automatically generated as “anqicms-wendang” or a similar format.

Secondly, to ensure the uniqueness of each URL, Anqi CMS will perform verification. If the system detects automatically generated{filename}that is different from the existing content{filename}Duplicates are automatically appended with random numbers to ensure global uniqueness.For example, if 'anqicms-wendang' already exists, the new content with the same title may be generated as 'anqicms-wendang-123'.

Users can also choose to manually enter a custom URL.In this case, the system will still perform a uniqueness check.The custom URL set manually must be unique across the entire site, and it should only support letters, numbers, and underscores, and cannot contain spaces or other special characters to ensure the validity and standardization of the URL.

filenamethe variable takes effect in the pseudo-static rule.

{filename}The automatic generation of variables is just the first step, in order to make it truly effective in the website front-end URL, it must be explicitly referenced in the "pseudo-static rules" of Anqi CMS.The static rules of a website's URL structure are the core configuration, which determines the link form when users visit.

In AnQi CMS, under the "Function Management" and "URL Rewrite Rule" settings, you can choose to use the built-in URL rewrite mode or enter "Custom Mode" for advanced configuration.In custom mode, you can define the URL structure for different types of content (such as document details, document lists, single pages, tags, etc.).

For example, if you want the URL of the document detail page to include the module name and content,{filename}you can set rules like this:

archive===/{module}/{filename}.html

This rule means that when a user accesses a document, the URL will display as/模块别名/自定义URL名称.htmlFor example, a document titled "AnQi CMS Tutorial", if its model alias is "article", {filename}It is generated as "anqicms-jiaocheng", so the final URL may beyourdomain.com/article/anqicms-jiaocheng.html.

Similarly, category pages and single pages can also be referenced{filename}Build a friendly URL:

category===/{module}/{filename}(-{page})
page===/{filename}.html

The configuration of these rules makes{filename}A variable is transformed from a unique identifier in the background to a user and search engine visible, meaningful part of the URL. This means that only when your pseudo-static rules include{filename}This placeholder is when the custom URL you set or automatically generate in content editing will actually take effect.

filenameBrings operating value

  • Improve SEO ranking:Search engines prefer URLs that contain keywords and have clear structure.{filename}Allow us to directly embed keywords in the title URL, improving relevance and helping with keyword ranking.

In short,{filename}The variable is a powerful and intelligent feature in the Anqi CMS content management system.It helps website operators easily build semantically meaningful, SEO-friendly, and user-friendly URL structures through automated generation and flexible pseudo-static configuration, which is an important tool for achieving efficient content management and marketing goals.
