Pathauto module
Submitted by Editor on Wed, 08/15/2007 - 03:55.
One of the first Drupal contrib modules implemented on this site was the Pathauto module. The reason for that was that it is probably (not sure whether this could have been done at the later stage) better that all the contnet that is created on the site will have proper search friendly URL aliases.
Here is a brief description of the Pathauto module:
The pathauto module automatically generates path aliases for various kinds of content (nodes, categories, users) without requiring the user to manually specify the path alias. This allows you to get aliases like /category/my-node-title.html instead of /node/123. The aliases are based upon a "pattern" system which the administrator can control.

- For some reason Comment must first be "Previewed" and only then can be "Submitted". Need to check why is it happening.
- BTW, will comments have their own URL alias? Is it warrented to create URL aleas for the comments based on their "ancor" items (i.e. the source information for which the comment is created in a first place). Example:
Let's say the blog post has title "Used Cars". The URL alias will be: .../blog/used-cars. If the comment title is "Check in the sunday newspaper", the URL alias for the comment may be: .../used-cars/check-sunday-newspaper.
