Myself and several others on this forum are convinced that messing with ZCs way of creating URLs is pure folly. Even Conor agreed with me that the world would be a lot better with ZCs URLs left alone. For every successful change to the system, there are hundreds that did nothing but create perpetual headaches for the user.

However, Conor knew that (no matter what) people were going to "mess" with what was working. That's why he devoted some of his precious time to creating the mod.

That said, let's think about what is happening. We take a server-side programmed site and ask it to do one more thing. Every time it presents any page to a customer, we want it to take the time to "rebuild" the link in order to "make it pretty," "easier to remember," and all the other excuses behind changing something that works. Therefore, you are asking your server to work harder every time you display a page. It must create the ZC-generated URL then munge that URL into something else. To my way of thinking, that's double the work.

The only way I see of determining if Conor's module is the culprit is to turn it off for a period of time.

Also.... There is no such thing in ZC as "the same mods in both versions." Especially, when going from 1.3 to 1.5. Most of them just won't work.

Please take the time to answer as many of the posting tip questions as you can. It really helps us help you.
