Resolve uids is a very powerfull tool to prevent broken links in Plone based sites. Kupu when used in conjunction with Archetypes generates urls that look like:

<a href="resolveuid?uid=a236346347634634c457457252135346f780568" />

When inside Zope, resolveuid is actually a script that will resolve the UID to a URL and direct the user there. qPloneResolveUID product allows to generate real links instead of ugly UIDs.  This product makes links more usable to visitors and search engines while content manager see links with UIDs.

qPloneResolveUID product uses portal_transforms tool. This product adds new transformation to trasformation line during page generation process.
