Introduction

Enterprise version for Hippo 12

Since Hippo 12, there is an Enterprise-level follow-up of this plugin, called the URL Rewriter Enterprise Add-on. It is a copy of this plugin, with some alterations, and it will be maintained and supported by BloomReach.

Please refer to URL Rewriter documentation on onehippo.org.

What is URL Rewriter?

URL Rewriter is a servlet filter that is an extension of Paul Tuckey's UrlRewriteFilter, but instead of a packaged xml file the filter is fed with data from CMS documents. So dynamically manageable instead of statically!

Since version 2.1.0, the plugin uses a Hippo fork of Paul Tuckey's UrlRewriteFilter which is at github.com/onehippo/urlrewritefilter
The original is at github.com/paultuckey/urlrewritefilter with documentation at www.tuckey.org/urlrewrite.
