How to configure the 'Custom URL' of Tag in the pseudo-static rule to take effect?

As an experienced website operation expert, I know that the structure of URL is crucial for the SEO and UX of the content management system.An clear and meaningful URL can not only help search engines better understand the content of the page, but also make it easy for visitors to understand at a glance.Today, let's delve into how to configure the "Custom URL for Tag" in Anqi CMS to truly take effect under the pseudo-static rules, making your website's Tag page more competitive.

Anqi CMS and URL Optimization: The Foundation of Pseudo-static

The Anqi CMS has fully considered SEO-friendliness from the very beginning of its design, and one of its core functions is the powerful management of pseudo-static and 301 redirection.Traditional dynamic URLs often contain question marks and parameters, which are considered complex by search engines and不利于抓取. in EnglishThe pseudo-static technology can 'beautify' these dynamic links into paths similar to static HTML files, making the URLs simpler and more semantically meaningful, thus improving the crawling efficiency and ranking potential of search engines.

For the Tag page, its importance is self-evident.They typically aggregate a large number of contents on the same topic, keywords within a website, which are important entry points for users to find relevant information and for search engines to understand the structure of the website content.Therefore, setting a custom, meaningful URL for Tag instead of the default numeric ID can significantly enhance its SEO performance and user-friendliness./tag/seo-optimization.htmlIs it not better than/tag-123.htmleasier to convey information, and also easier to remember and share?

The value of custom URL tags

Why do we take the trouble to set the custom URL for Tag? Its value is reflected in several aspects:

FirstlyEnhance keyword relevanceIn the URL, including the Tag keyword directly can make the search engine more clearly know the theme of this page, thus possibly achieving a better ranking.

ThenEnhance user experience and brand imageAn easily readable, logical URL that enhances user trust and makes it easier for users to understand the content of the page. It also subtly strengthens the brand image of your website.

Furthermore,Easy to manage and shareA meaningful custom URL is easier to manage internally and share externally than a random ID.

The powerful feature provided by the Auto CMS needs to be skillfully combined with the pseudo-static rules to take effect on the front-end, and it is not simply a matter of filling out a form.

Configure Tag Custom URL: Operation Guide for Backend

In the Anqi CMS backend, setting a custom URL for Tag is the first step and also very intuitive.You need to go to the back end, find the 'Content Management' menu, and then the 'Document Tag' feature.Here, you can add or edit existing tags.

When you click to enter the editing page of a label, you will see a field named "Custom URL".The Anqi CMS is very intelligent. By default, it will automatically generate a custom URL in pinyin form based on the tag name you enter, which is a good starting point.But if you are not satisfied with the automatically generated URL, or you want it to be more personalized, you can manually enter the URL alias you expect.

When entering manually, there are several important details to note: this custom URL must ensure uniqueness throughout the entire site. If a duplicate occurs, the system will automatically add a random number at the end to ensure uniqueness.In addition, the content of the custom URL has strict restrictions, it can only contain letters, numbers, and underscores, and cannot include any spaces or special characters.This is the key to ensuring the specification and stability of the URL.

Activate Custom URL: Key Configuration for URL Rewriting

However, simply filling in the custom URL on the label editing page does not take effect on the front page immediately.To make this custom URL truly functional, we must make the corresponding configuration in the website's 'pseudo-static rules'.This is the core of the problem.

The 'pseudo-static rules' management feature of AnQi CMS is located under the 'Feature Management' menu.Here, the system is built with several common rewrite rule patterns, such as numeric patterns, model naming patterns, etc., which usually meet the needs of most websites.But to enable the custom URL for Tag, we need to select "Custom Mode" and adjust the Tag rules.

The document clearly states that the custom URL of Tag can only take effect when the pseudo-static rules of the website are used{filename}under the naming mode of this field. This means that the default such astag===/tag-{id}(-{page})This rule, although it can generate pseudo-static URLs, is based on the Tag ID, not the custom URL alias we set.

Therefore, we need to adjust the pseudo-static rules of Tag to include{filename}in the form of variables. An example of a recommended configuration is as follows:

tag===/tags/{filename}(-{page})

This rule tells the routing engine of the Anqi CMS when encountering/tags/When the URL starts, it will try to match{filename}part and parse it as the custom URL alias of the Tag. The last(-{page})Is optional, used to support pagination display. If there is no pagination requirement on the Tag page, it can also be omitted.

After modifying this rule, be sure to click "Save Configuration", then go back to the homepage of the background or the "Update Cache" feature, clear the system cache, to ensure that the new pseudo-static rules take effect immediately. Only in this way, can the custom URL you have carefully set for Tag, such as/tags/seo-optimization.htmlEnglish translation: ，in order to be correctly parsed and accessed on the front end.

Considerations for Nginx/Apache server configuration in English.

It is worth mentioning that the pseudo-static rules of Anqi CMS are mainly effective within its application.For Nginx or Apache such external web servers, they usually play the role of reverse proxy.This means that whether it is a dynamic URL or a pseudo-static URL processed internally by the security CMS, it will be unifiedly forwarded to the security CMS application port (e.g., the default 8001 port) by the web server.

Therefore, you do not need to write additional specific rewrite rules in the Nginx or Apache configuration files for the custom URL of Tag.If your web server is properly configured with reverse proxy to forward all web requests to the AnQi CMS for processing, then the effectiveness of the Tag custom URL depends entirely on the pseudo-static rule configuration in the AnQi CMS backend.try_files $uri $uri/index.html @AnqiCMS;Such configuration, but this is not a specific requirement for Tag custom URL.

Summary: Make your Tag more influential

Through the above steps, it is not difficult to see that activating the custom URL of Tag in the security CMS is a simple and powerful two-step process: first, set a meaningful 'custom URL' for each tag in the 'Document Tag' management in the background; second, in the 'Feature Management' section, configure the Tag rule to include{filename}The form of a variable, for exampletag===/tags/{filename}(-{page}).

After completing these configurations, your Tag page will have a more friendly and SEO-friendly URL, which will help improve the visibility of the website in search engines, attract more targeted traffic, and provide users with a better browsing experience.
