I would like to remove the container URL alias from the resource used to store individual articles when using the Article Plugin. So replace domain.com/blog/post to domain.com/post.
I have been unable to find a fix, any ideas?
Article was awesome, but kinda choked usability.
Could CustomUrls override the url that Articles produces?

Harden your MODX site by
passwording your three main folders:
core, manager, connectors and renaming your
assets (thank me later!)
5 ways to sniff / hack your own sites; even with renamed/hidden folders, burst them all up, to see how secure you are not.
Thanks for the CustomURL recommendation, I have now installed CustomURL but Article posts no-longer seem to use the alias field but seems to create URLs from pagetitle.
My CustomURL settings
Pattern: [[+alias]]
Constraint field: parent
Constraint: [parent ID]
User group: Administrator
URI: yes
Override: yes
Active: yes
You can make a change to core/components/articles/model/articles/article.class.php
…but bear in mind you will have to unpublish / re-publish all your posts for it to take effect - which can be a pain if you want to get the dates correct.
Around line 290, change…
$uri = rtrim($containerUri,'/') .'/'. rtrim($furlTemplate);
to…
$uri = rtrim($furlTemplate);
Hope it works for you but obviously take precautions!
