Are there any good ways of using SEO friendly urls when linking from Item link fields?

Could DW convert hardcoded links from /Default.aspx?ID=2513&ProductID=4355371 to /produktkatalog/dekkbark-50-liter when entered in to the link field ( see attachement )

I was thinking about making selecboxes with an SQL query so all the products are predefined in the list, but thats an ugly way of doing this.

In MC, Search Friendly Urls, set the "Use customized url" for internal links, and also set the "Ensure unique path" checkbox.

With those settings DW will convert any link in the format href="/template-tags/content/maps/templates/locations/firstname?ProductID=4355371" to the right format. It will NOT however, convert absolute links like this: href="http://www.hageland.no/Default.aspx?ID=2513&ProductID=4355371".

​The second option will redirect if the URL is not friendly.

See manual: http://manual.dynamicweb-cms.com/Dynamicweb-On-line-Manual/Modules/Customized-URLs/Advanced-configuration.aspx

Thanks Nicolay, it worked great! I've looked for it in the manual, but I guess I did not have the right search term to look for it!
