Campsite 2.2.x/2.3.x supports the following new statements: URI and URIPath. You can find the full description in the chapter "URL, Form". These statements help you build a new type of URL: the one called short name. It comes from the fact that each issue/ section/ article has a short name. A short name based URL would look like:
http://test.com/en/may30/news/summer_is_coming
where:
test.com is the publication's site name
en is the publication's language code
may30 is the latest issue number
news is the section short name
summer_is_coming is the article short name
To produce such a link you only have to write the following:
<a href=”<!** URI>”>text</a>
This is equivalent to:
<a href=”<!** URIPath>?<!** URLParameters>”>text</a>
URIPath displays the 'path' part of the URI: /en/may30/news/summer_is_coming
.
URLParameters displays the rest of the parameters if any. URI combines both these statements. All these statements work for both old style URLs (named template path) and new type of URLs (named short name).
