I am trying to upgrade an old-school PHP site (http://cordair.com/) to work with Drupal running Ubercart. One of the key things is making sure URLs that people have bookmarked stay the same.
My taxonomy looks something like this
Catalog
+ Artists
+ Pablo Picaso
+ Lenardo DaVinci
+ Medium
+ Sculpture
+ Painting
+ Print
The taxonomy is multi-select. So each has 1 artists and potentially multiple mediums (e.g. something can be both an original painting and also available as a print). I want the site to be able to serve up a page at http://foo.com/picaso that lists all the items at or under Pablo Picaso. I also want to be able to have a page like http://foo.com/paintings that lists all the paintings across all artists.
What's the best way to pull this off? It looks like I need to use Path Auto, but it's really confusing to figure out what the right settings are. I also don't see a way to custom tailor the way the taxonomy term is turned into a URL; right now I just get IDs. It looks like there's a way to use term name, but the URLs I am trying to build just use last name and not first.
Forgive my Drupal noob-ness, as I am sure this is all possible and probably easier than I think it is.
