    I've searched and can't find a definitive answer for this, the few posts I found that had references to other information were dead links.

    I'd like to change the URLS of subpages to be search engine friendly..instead of www.domain.com/index.php?name=Downloads I'd like it to be www.domain.com/subpage.php or something similar.

    Is this possible with PostNuke, or do I need to use mod-rewrite on my server? I'd prefer to do it natively in PostNuke.

    PostNuke's shortURLs are enabled through Xanthia (if using an Xanthia theme). Take the .htaccess file from modules/Xanthia/pndocs/short_urls/ (choose the file extension you want by picking the directory, HTML, htm or phtml). Then, drop this into your webroot and enable short urls (Admin>Xanthia>Modify config).

    Your URLs will now take a similar form to what you see here at community.postnuke.com

    If your looking at SEO I'd use shortUrls and use both the dynamic description and the dynamic keywords plugins. Only my homepage got indexed until I used them :)
