How can we add tags.. ie: year & month in the article link and have it update automatically each month? are there special tags we can use?

Hi,

If you mean just getting the current year and month, you can do this:

<?php
$year = date("Y");
$month = date("m");
?>


You can then use this text anywhere you want.

Hope this helps

Hi,

Okay, to get the year and month of article, you could do something like this:

<?php
$year = date("Y", strtotime($article['createdDate']);
$month = date("m", strtotime($article['createdDate']);
?>


in terms of the format of your URL, I think the closest you would get to that would be like this:
illumemag.com/articleDetail.php/2011/06/Article-Title-001

Hope this helps.
