Can Sandcastle be configured to produce SEO friendly pages and links?

Question

By default I see that Sandcastle is generating HTML pages and links named with GUIDs. Can somehow this be changed to generate user/SEO friendly names for the pages? Ie. instead of f987d4ff-cabc-10af-86cd-620978605d86.htm I want it create 'namespace.class.method.htm', similar to how the .Net MSDN documentation is generated.

Answer 1

Assuming you're using the Sandcastle Help File Builder, you could try this setting, available in the GUI as "NamingMethod":

<NamingMethod>MemberName</NamingMethod>

Don't know if it exactly fits your needs, but it is an alternative to the GUIDs.

Answer 2

Yes.

NamingMethod = MemberName

Additionally you can research implementing your own naming routine. Check out this thread for some more information
