One of the most important features of Site functionality is the way URLs are handled in a Site page.
- After you configure the URL forwarding (redirect) from your web address to the Site's Default Web URL/Base URL, the Platform is ready to serve your site
- In any typical web application, URLs include the site {domain}
- In the case of Sites, the user will have to write absolute URLs pointing the User's web address, since the content is being served from Platform's server
- URLs can be hard-coded with the Site URL or the Platform URL JSP tags can be used
- Learn more: Tags
Sites are built using a combination of Pages, Classes, Controllers.
- Learn more: Working with Pages and Classes
URL Types
URL types supported in Sites include Pages, Controllers and Actions.
