In fact it works if you just hit : "domaine/custom/" but not with the param. Is there something i am missing to have this syntax working with module params ? I hope my description is clear enough.

If the module only have one view, then you should look into using the singel function support. HowTo: Avoid defining $ViewList, and just define the singel function in $Module['function'] like: $Module = array( 'name' => 'Custom', 'variable_params' => true, 'function' => array( 'script' => 'index.php', 'params' => array( 'contentNodeID' ) ) ); eZ Online Editor 5: http://projects.ez.no/ezoe \|\| eZJSCore (Ajax): http://projects.ez.no/ezjscore \|\| eZ Publish EE http://ez.no/eZPublish/eZ-Publish-Enterprise-Subscription @: http://twitter.com/andrerom
H-Works Agency	Wednesday 15 July 2009 2:50:34 am This technique allow to make compact module adresses by removing the second element in module's view uri. But my exemple is not only for a "one view module" but to define a module "index" page...after $ViewList[''] you can add $ViewList['myview']. The second benefit of defining this "empty" view is that people playing with their browser address won't arrive on a "undefined view" error when removing module's view name from the address. I wasn't aware of your technique, i am gonna try it right away. Thanx EZP is Great
Bartek Modzelewski	Wednesday 15 July 2009 3:08:03 am Hi Martin, have you tried to use URL Translator in admin interface, and setup the following rule: New URL alias: custom Destination: custom/index and remeber to uncheck "Alias should redirect to its destination". I use it in my custom module, in fact without any params, but i think it should work also with params. Maybe just you will have to use different alias name than your module...

I thought about using url_translation module, i am gonna test it to see if it works with wildcards. Thanx EZP is Great
