I was hoping to place some short cut object in the root of my zope site that point directly down into certain folder within the plone site. Silva has something called a shadow. I was wondering if there is something that can be used generally to create a 'rewrite' object. For example: if my zope plone site looks like this \ \standardzopestuff \standardzopestuff\plonesite\members\ploneuser\coolstuff I would like to have a url like \coolstuff that maps straight into the ploneusers folder. I don't know what to call this.. in apache this would be a rewrite. Is there a zope product that does something like this? -- David Bear phone: 480-965-8257 fax: 480-965-9189 College of Public Programs/ASU Wilson Hall 232 Tempe, AZ 85287-0803 "Beware the IP portfolio, everyone will be suspect of trespassing"

RedirectionTool can do redirection and aliases automatically, and SimpleAlias does a variation of the same. -- __________________________________________________________________ Alexander Limi · Chief Architect · Plone Solutions Development · Training · Support · http://www.plonesolutions.com __________________________________________________________________ Plone Co-Founder · http://plone.org · Connecting Content

MovableHole would seem to fit the bill. There are also Products called Rewriter and Redirector, though I've never successfully used them. There may also be a few others. If you want redirection rather than an alias, you might use MovedObject. One could also write a Python script to do such things. return plonesite.members.ploneuser.coolstuff would act as that folder. request.RESPONSE.redirect('plonesite/members/ploneuser/coolstuff') would do a redirect. --jcc
