URL Handling

URL Handling

URLs can be separated into two different types: standard and landingpage URLs. The standard URL links to a specific page and includes the language to which it refers in itself. On the other side the landingpage URLs are a marketing tool, and should therefore be easy to remember.

Database

The urls-table stores all the available URLs for the ZOOLU installation. The fields are differently used, depending on the url (whether it is a landingpage or not). The isLandingPage-field is self explanatory, it is a boolean, and describes if the current row is a landingpage URL. The following table shows the meaning of the other important fields for standard and landingpage URLs.
