Hello, We are now using custom images for each of our channels. When we post a story to say our "Vermont" channel, the pathauto stays with /story/story-name . This causes an incorrect header image because the vermont header image is set to vermont/* . How can we get Vermont articles to file as /vermont/story-name and NEK stories to file as /nek/story-name etc. I cannot find a pathauto settings area under site configuration. Thanks

Try .../admin/build/path/pathauto

The location of pathauto settings for ProsePoint (and Drupal 6.x) is at .../admin/build/path/pathauto.

Or you can visit URL aliases (.../admin/build/path) and then click on Automated alias settings.

So I tried changing the
So I tried changing the pathauto settings and it didn't work. What I am trying to do is have stories that are filed in the Around the NEK channel for example, which is /nek , I want those stories to file with a URL path of /nek/story-name I tried this : [menu-raw]/[title-raw][mm][yy] and that did not work... There doesn't seem to be just a channel name switch to use... Is there a way to do this?

Channels are built on top of taxonomy terms, so you could try using tokens such as [term], [term-raw] or [termpath], [termpath-raw]. If that doesn't work, you could try [field_channel-term].

However, please be aware that stories can belong to more than one channel. If you have a story that belong to 2 or more channels, pathauto will pick one of them, but I can't predict which one.
