Isn't it enough to rename the aliases of your sections/categories/articles?

> It's been a while since I've had to do this with Joomla. The friendly URLs

> for a few pages. Such as domain.com/whitepaper instead of whatever
> friendly URL Joomla would assign to it.
>
> In an early version of Joomla, before 1.5, I think I had to install an

> I've looked around and can't find the discussion on this I need. I know

> actually edited the .htaccess file to put in my own URL name.
>
> I'm fuzzy on what htaccess.txt actually does now, because I still had it
> off and with the SEO Friendly URL set to 'yes' it was coming up with URLs
> based on the title of the articles all it's own. Thanks!
