PS 1.7 remove /content/ from URL gives 404

[web-design-milano]

Hi, I have a new unmodified PS 1.7 store. In "Shop parameters/ traffic and SEO" I have tried to shorten a few """Schema of URLs" but get 404 errors. The changes I made were:

 

Route to page from "content/{id}-{rewrite}" to "{id}-{rewrite}"

Route to page category from "content/category/{id}-{rewrite}" to "category/{id}-{rewrite}"

 

I get 404s. Is this a bug or am I missing something. I have pretty urls and mod rewrite enabled.

 

Thanks.

 I have pretty urls 

you mean some module to build pretty urls or you mean that you enabled "friendly urls" ?

Yes - I meant that I have enables friendly URLs.

Anyone? Is this a bug. There is nothing in the documentation saying we cannot remove the "content" from the url, yet idong so causes 404 errors.

I also have this issue. Have you solved the problem and how?
