iMIS supports the ability to define friendly URL shortcuts, so that an easy-to-remember URL redirects to a specific page. You can create these shortcuts for any of your websites and link the shortcuts to a URL or content record.
To create a new shortcut URL, in the Site Designer tool, select Manage shortcuts, then click Add. After you specify the values for the shortcut URL, click Insert. You can click the Shortcut to test the link.
For example, create an Events shortcut that points to the Conference List page. You can do this either by entering the URL to the page (~/Events/Conferences/ConferenceList.aspx) or by selecting the content record (@/Events/Conferences/ConferenceList). After inserting the shortcut, the link www.yourwebsite/Events automatically displays www.yourwebsite/Events/Conferences/ConferenceList.aspx.
By default, shortcuts apply to all of your websites. For example, if you define an Events shortcut for all sites, it always displays the same content record, regardless of which website the user is visiting, www.yourwebsite/events or www.otherwebsite/events. But you can also define shortcuts for a specific site. For example, you may want your mobile website to display a different content record for www.mobilesite/events. In that case, select your mobile site from the For Website dropdown list and point the Events shortcut to the content record you prefer.
Note: Some system shortcuts cannot be edited or deleted, but they are listed for your reference. Other shortcuts are reserved for use in the sample sites and can be edited but not deleted.
