Work With The Engine > User-friendly URL and its settings

DataLife Engine uses user-friendly URL to display news. It allows to show the article title or any other text in the URL bar. Thereby indexing in search engines will be better that will bring more visitors to your website from search engines. User-friendly URL requires mod_rewrite module to be installed on your server. If your server does not support this, you can disable this feature. To do this, you need to be sure to remove .htaccess file from the root directory and disable this feature at the script installation. For correct operation of the user-friendly URL it is recommended to install the script in the root folder of the website.
