Hey,

I wanted to have a /pages/foobar alias for a /post/yyyy/mm/foo-bar-baz url, but it seems that this plugin cannot create aliases that starts with existing URL handlers (like post/, pages/, tag/, etc.).

This should probably either be fixed or explicited in the README :).

If it is fixed so that aliases are checked for before dispatching the URL to other handlers, it would be nice to also have the option to make aliases that redirect to their target URL.

With this feature, we could use this plugin for example to change the URL of a post and redirect the old one to the new one :).
(I would really appreciate to be able to do that, and never found a plugin to do so properly!)

Cheers!

I tried my best to do that. But this changes how the plugin works, it stops using dotclear URL handlers and bypass them by catching a behavior...
Not sure there are no bugs.
