In case that you are planning to customize the portal so that alias paths of documents change, you need to take into account that some intranet portal widgets may not work correctly. These widgets are based on standard Kentico CMS web parts, but have most of their properties pre-configured. However, some of them have their configuration dependent on the default structure of the portal. Therefore, it is either necessary for the documents listed below to be accessible under their original URLs, or to change the pre-configuration of particular widget properties in Site Manager -> Development -> Widgets -> ... select a widget from the tree ... -> Properties to reflect your new custom location.
For more information on URLs in Kentico CMS, please refer to Developer's Guide -> Development -> Page processing and URLs. A detailed reference on path expressions is located in Developer's Guide -> Appendix B - Path expression.
Global section

Remembering original URLs when moving documents
The Site Manager -> Settings -> URLs and SEO -> Remember original URLs when moving documents setting may come in handy in this situation.
This setting is enabled by default and it ensures that when a document is moved or its alias path is modified, the original alias path is added among its additional Document aliases. This way, the document is still accessible under the original URL (2. in the screenshot below), as well as under the new one (1. in the screenshot below). If you perform your alias‑path‑related modifications with this setting enabled, the functionality of the structure-dependent widgets listed above will be preserved.
