Well, its quite simple actually. In fact I stumbled upon it navigating the sql table structure in dnn. If you are sql server literate then read on. If not then stop right here because you could ruin your installation permanantly!!! I take no responsibility if you mess up your installation. Ok braves souls here we go. 1. Login to your SQL Server using the "SQL Server Management Studio". If you have "SQL Server Express" installed then chances are its not installed. You can download it separately from MS. Google for it. 2. Navigate the dnn tables until you find the "Tabs" table. 3. Find the field called "TabPath" and then edit the hyphens manually into each path you desire. 4. Go make some coffee! Also, if you have a google site map generator installed, it works like a treat! Furthermore, This is a "hack"! It is a temporary workaround until Scott can graciously figure how to get the hyphens in the tab path automatically. Good luck.

I forgot, those who want lowercase urls this works again.

Oh poo! A side effect to this is if you edit the page settings it changes back. So, this only works if you dont need to change your page settings often. And if you do, you could just re-edit the table. Like I said it's a hack.

Or just edit your pages through the table instead. Man, I have been up way too long, haha.

Yep - it does use the TabPath, and modifying it in the tables would work, but like others have suggested, the UI will mess this up. I've posted in another thread, it might be possible to modify the provider to use the tabpath minus the current page (and then use the page title of the current page)

Hello xcentric, hello Scott. Finally, I have successfully applied this hack. I love it, it works perfectly. But... Since I have applied it, I have this error, do you think it is related or not ?? Scott mention something about UI, but I have not understood and I am not strong enough to understand it. What is your opinion ??? It seems that this error appear when I do a synchronise file (recursive) 5/11/2007 1:06:52 PM General Exception AssemblyVersion: 04.05.01; PortalID: -1; PortalN ...
