I have installed the provider and i like it a lot, it does pretty much exactly what i wanted it to do...

I occasionally have a need to look up the tabid of a page, i used to use the URL.  But now with tabid out of the URL, even on the edit page, I don't know that I have a good way of finding it.

I am basically having some conflicts with set friendly url redirects.

Is there any way to find out the tabid of a page left in the interface? (i'd rather not have to resort to SQL to find it).

I am also getting a bunch of errors in my error log indicating that 2 pages have a naming conflict... What is the best way to resolve this? How do i navigate to the page to edit the name?

The best way to determine which pages are in conflict is to just have a look at your admin->pages screen.  This will give you a listing of all the pages in the site.  But remember you can have duplicates across child portals as well - the duplicate message refers to all portals in the installation.

If you can't find the problem there, look also in the recycle bin.  Deleted pages can cause the duplicate key warning error (the deleted pages are handled so that a 404/301 action can be performed if the deleted page is requested).

As for finding the tab id - I have one method, and it's not pretty but it works.  While you are on the admin->pages screen, do a 'view source' (it helps if you have Firefox with Firebug installed).   In the source code for the page, you will see the Html source for the list of pages, like this:

<option value="399">Products</option>
<option value="388">...Free Downloads</option>

<option value="400">...Support Forums</option>

The 'value' in the options is the tabid of the page.
