How to Manage Your URL Aliases

How to clean up duplicate URL Aliases across multiple content types (not including Nav Sections)

Log into your admin homepage
Open “Advanced Configuration” in the applications box and then click on “Site Alias Maintenance”
On the top of the page change your search parameters to include “active only” and “show duplicates only”, then press “Search”
Click on the first link under the “Content title” column, this will trigger a popup window for that content
Click on the “General” tab and look for the “URL Alias” field. The system will suggest a new alias for you to use in italics. You can replace that alias with a title of your choice as long as it doesn’t include any special characters. Any spaces will be converted to hyphens. Once you are done filling in the URL Alias it will show a green checkmark if the alias is unique, or a red circle if it’s a duplicate. Once you are done press “save & close” on the top to return to the alias maintenance window.
The content that you just edited should no longer be showing on the site alias maintenance window. Repeat step 5 above until all content has been cleaned.

How to change one piece of a content’s URL Alias

When editing a piece of content on the site click on the “General” tab
Look for the URL Alias field, whatever is in this field is what the member will see at the end of the address in their browser when viewing the content
Replace this text with a new alias of your choice, when you click outside of the field the system will check to see if this alias is already tied to another piece of content.
If the alias you chose is already being used you will see a red circle with a line through it.
If the alias is unique you will see a green checkmark
Once you are satisfied with your unique alias you can click “save & close” to assign this new alias to your content
