hello,

i like the module but my users would like the shortened url without the /url/ inside the domain.com/url/(shortened link). how should i modify the code to archieve this?

also, i would like to add page showing the the original link with a description that "this is a redirecting service...." to avoid abusing. how to do this?

thanks a lot.

How do we get rid of the /url/ in the shortened link?

Would have been handy to set that with Pathauto

I wouldn't recommend removing it completely, after all arguments passed to the root of the site would go at the index and we wouldn't be able to verify that argument is for this module.

If there is an expressed interest, I can add an administrative page where you select what you want the path to be. Something like:

http://site.com/u/{shortened link}

I don't have drupal 5 so this would be for version 6.
