It's just a hyperlink at the end of the day, surely? Security by obscurity does'nt make much sense when you're talking about a well-known URL anyway. -- 'HOLIDAYMAKERS.

After getting a local version of Typo running smoothly on OSX I'm just about ready to migrate my live site from Textpattern. I do have a couple of questions though and this may be the quickest way to resolve it (and to provide a searchable solution for others with a similar problem). 1. Redirects using htaccess. My textpattern site (and Wordpress previously) used the clean URL www.mysite.com/2005/01/01/a-post Typo would use the clean URL www.mysite.com/articles/2005/01/01/a-post Who knows the best way to handle this redirect for old links coming from search engines? I like the taxonomy that Typo uses but I don't want visitors from Google to get routing errors. 2. Theme question I managed to mash the azure CSS so it closely matches my current CSS. I also wanted to change the look of the 'Live Search' box in the top right corner. Is there a way to do this within a theme rather than hack 'search.rhtml' and '_search.rhtml' in the core code? I managed it with no issues, but updating Typo will cause issues for me then.

Is there a way to do this within a theme I modified mine (see http://typo.cdlm.fasmz.org ). I have no modifications to _search.rhtml except to change the spinner img tag to use the animated gif from my theme, which is composited to the correct background color. Maybe that image can be replaced in JS but imho it's not worth the effort. BTW, I wrote a little ruby+rmagick script to composite the .tif frames from MacOS into a gif with an arbitrary bg color... -- D
