To configure Bolt to work with the shortened URL, you'll need to modify two files: routes.yaml and contenttype.yaml. The configuration depends on whether or not your site is multilingual.

Configure short URLs for a single-language website

1. Locate your config/routes.yaml file and underneath the line # Place your own routes here, that have a LOWER priority than the default routes, add the following:

   content_seo_default:
   path: /{slugOrId}
   methods: [GET|POST]
   defaults:
       _controller: Bolt\Controller\Frontend\DetailController::record

This will make sure that the URL is properly matched.

1. Configure Bolt to use that route internally as well as using the |link filter. To do this, add record_route: content_seo_default to all Content Types in config/contenttypes.yaml, for instance:

entries:
    name: Entries
    singular_name: Entry
    record_route: content_seo_default
    # the rest of the Content Type definition...

Note: At this time, the auto-generated links will contain ?contentTypeSlug={yourContentType} appended to them.

Configure short URLs for a multilingual website

1. Locate your config/routes.yaml file and underneath the line # Place your own routes here, that have a LOWER priority than the default routes, add the following:

   content_seo:
   path: /{_locale}/{slugOrId}
   methods: [GET|POST]
   defaults:
       _controller: Bolt\Controller\Frontend\DetailController::record

This will match localized URLs, like /en/about-us and /nl-over-ons. You can also enable a short URL without the locale for your default locale, by adding a second route underneath:

content_seo_default:
    path: /{slugOrId}
    methods: [GET|POST]
    defaults:
        _controller: Bolt\Controller\Frontend\DetailController::record

1. Configure Bolt to use that route internally as well as using the |link filter. To do this, add record_route: content_seo_default to all Content Types in config/contenttypes.yaml, for instance:

   entries:
   name: Entries
   singular_name: Entry
       locales: ['en', 'nl']
   record_route: content_seo
   # the rest of the Content Type definition...
