disable category name from URL

is it possible to disable the cat name in the URL?  example:

domain.com/main/category/content_item_name.html

to

domain.com/content_item_name.html

I used to be able to do this with 404SEF.. was curious if SEFadvance had this option too.

domain.com/content_item_name.html
format is reserved to static content (items that don't belong to any section/category). Enabling the same format for categorized pages would put excessive load to database.

You can use manual alias feature to achieve that though.

where are the aliases stored?  in mysql?  I have 2200 urls to do, so I couldn't do it by hand, but could easily script it if I knew where it lives.

thanks for the help

Yes, in database. Table "jos_sef_alias".
