Hello,
I am looking for guidance, suggestions and best strategies on how to
create readable, permanent URLs for my project.
I have a project that serves up two types of pages:
subject help guides
course help guides
So I need a URL for the list of subject guides and a URL for a list of
course guides. I also need URLs for each individual course page and a
URL for the individual subject guides that consist of multiple subject
pages.
I’ve been reading:
http://www.w3.org/Provider/Style/URI
I agree with this - but question the no-subjects in URLs guideline.
Dated but good
What are peoples ideas on good readable urls?
I am wondering how to handle the ids - can I hide them with routes?
Do people use the to params method?

How do I do the redirect with my routes. All the examples of
redirecting with a 302 is from the old action to the new, but I want
to redirect them when they enter /id-BULL! to /id-ba214 (see last
link)
Thanks for the help and I hope to get some good discussions.
