    2nd Level Nav without 1st Level in URL

    First off, I apologize if this isn't the right forum for this question.  I was trying to match it to the topic as best I could.

    I have a standard site with a sitemap that looks similar to the following:

    Programs
    Program 1
    Program 2
    Company
    Bios
    Contact

    The URLs for programs and company would be programs.aspx and company.aspex respectively.  The sub-navigation looks like programs/program-1.aspx, programs/program-2.aspx, company/bios.aspx, etc.

    This is exactly what I expect and want for those particular items.

    However, I'm going to add a new navigation called Solutions that will have sub-navigation:

    Solutions
    Solution 1
    Solution 2

    I do NOT want the URLs to use the solutions main navigation in their URL.  I want the URL to go directly to solutions-1.aspx and solutions-2.aspx without a redirect.  

    How can I accomplish this and still maintain the previous structure?

    Thanks in advance for your help!!

    Best way to do it is to add some rewriting rules in the file /config/UrlRewrite.config
    To automaticaly rewrite Url like :

    /Solution 1.aspx

    to

    /Solution/Solution 1.aspx

    When the request will arrive in the umbraco pipe it will be automatically redirected to the coresponding page.

    Check that site for more explanations about .NET rewriting :

    Or use umbracoUrlAlias property and set it to "solution-1"

    solution-1 doesn't seem to work but this is the route I would prefer to go instead of writing rules for each of them.  Any thoughts?
