For example +content created at /content/extras/urls.md will be rendered at +/content/extras/urls/index.html and accessible at /content/extras/urls. No +no standard server side configuration is required for these pretty urls to +work. + +If you would like to have uglyurls you are in luck. Hugo supports the +ability to create your entire site with ugly urls. Simply use the +`--uglyurls=true` flag on the command line. + +If you want a specific piece of content to have an exact url you can +specify this in the front matter under the url key. See [Content +Organization](content/organization/) for more details. + +## Canonicalization + By default, all relative URLs encountered in the input will be canonicalized using `baseurl`, so that a link `/css/foo.css` becomes `http://yoursite.example.com/css/foo.css`.
