When you've got a list or latest view of tt_news on one of your pages, you might have a page browser.

The tt_news page browser urls in this kind of situation include the parameter, tx_ttnews[pointer] which can be put into your CoolUri configuration to convert it to it's number.

In my CoolUriConf.xml file, I just added the following part within the <uriparts> section:

 

<part>
     <parameter>tx_ttnews[pointer]</parameter>
</part>

So now, my urls no longer look like this:

http://www.example.com/news/&tx_ttnews[pointer]=1

They now look like:

http://www.example.com/news/1/

And that's the way I like it.
