Option to Include Non-character Entities in Forum URLs

[zylstra]

I have one forum named C, and one forum named C++. With the options that I have enabled, which is the simple name of the forum for the URL, there is a naming conflict. No one can use the C++ forum.

Will you include a text box option (with inputs separated by commas perhaps) to include specified other characters in URLs of forums?

This is also somewhat of a support question. Is there a way to do that now? Or is there a workaround? I have a high traffic site that I do not want to loose visitors to just to change the name of one forum, but at the same time I think that another name for the forum would look jury rigged at best.

Hello,

you can either:
1. include [forum_id] part in forum URL formats, so that you have different URLs for those 2 subforums

2. OR use our forum slugs feature that can be manually defined in config_vbseo.php file:

	$vbseo_forum_slugs = array(
12 => 'cpp'
	);

where 12 is a forum ID for C++ subforum.

Slugs it is!

Thanks.
