I'd like to have a page "/stream" on my Known site that displays Bookmarks and Status Updates.
#
[cleverdevil]
I know I can link to `/content/bookmarkedpages/statusupdates`, but I'd prefer the more terse `/stream`.
#

I was thinking about accomplishing this with an `.htaccess` entry using `RewriteRule`, but I can't seem to figure it out. Is there a best practice for this?
#
[cleverdevil]
Has anyone else done something similar?
#
[cleverdevil]
(I'd like to map a few of these, FWIW)

cleverdevil Another option would be to do a 301 redirect in your .htaccess
#
[cleverdevil]
Yeah, I've had that working, but at that point, I might as well just leave it.

I want the clean URL everywhere ?

canonicalurl++

Loqi
canonicalurl has 1 karma

I'm gonna keep tinkering. I am *sure* there's a way to do it.
#
[cleverdevil]
But, its a bit annoyingly complex right now.
#
[cleverdevil]
I've also considered just creating a directory called `timeline` with an `index.php` that does the needful.
#
[cleverdevil]
That'd also be fine with me, if I could figure out how to do that ?
#
[chrisaldrich]
Nothing good comes easy... ?

a known plugin??

Its pretty simple, once you know how to do it. I still wish it could be done with htaccess (it probably can), but at least this works for now.
