eZ Publish automatically generates nice URLs (called "virtual URLs") for each content node. You can also create custom node URL aliases. However, the main virtual URL is always generated from your object's name or title. Thus it is sometimes too long and affects all internal links.

In essence, it enables you to create your own permalink for the object, separate from the object's name or title.

As the company behind eZ Publish, we at eZ Systems have naturally been using our own software to power our main ez.no website since we started in 1999. Hey, we're eZ Publish experts! So when it came time to set up our North American presence here at ezsystems.ca, we figured we would take this opportunity to be a live example of what eZ Publish can do. We invite you to come along for the ride, which we will document every step of the way.
When the web was new and clueless optimists such as Zak drove the digital equivalent of mopeds and VW beetles on the mighty (and sparsely populated) information superhighways, one of the most common design elements for web pages was the Under Construction GIF.
