Way back there use to be a permalink and later a shortlink module if I remember to shorten unwieldy links. I was looking at the download links and they work fine on the download page of my site but if I want to share a link I'd love to have an alternate link (or a way to reduce the Download Gallery links).
Here is a current example
https://www.enduracladcoatings.com/modules/download_gallery/dlc.php?id=00648E8
and be nice to simplfy that to something like
https://enduracladcoatings.com/d/id=00648E8
Thanks,
Burt

Das Basis Short Url bezieht sich auf den Pages Ordner. Modules Link sind im Moment noch nicht für short urls vorgesehen

Hi, take a look here (https://forum.WebsiteBaker.org/index.php/topic,25367.msg172900.html#msg172900).
This, to me, is the most ideal solution to what you are looking for. Works for me ever since. :-)
Best regards,

It will not work for him because he also needs to redirect url from /modules/download_gallery/ to /d/ and also ID in url (filename should be "id=123456.php", second filename id=345678.php etc)
It can be done manually if he has few files but for big library best is to redirect like I posted few posts above

Thanks very much @crnogorac081. I didn't get it to work after a few tries so I installed YOURLS in a subdirectory and was able to generate short links with that. I don't anticipate more than 30-40 files and they won't change very often if ever so this will fit my need. I do appreciate every one's willingness to help though. This is still a great forum after all these years. (Y)
