If you have the ForumID in your Forums URL Format it will, otherwise you would have to manually create the redirect in your .htaccess file.

But thread URLs still will be redirected...

My urls don't have the forum ID so I did as said and I changed the name and then did the 301 redirect from forum/bla/ to forum/bla-bla/

However, with that in place, if I go to forum/bla/ it redirects me to forum/bla-bla/?vbseourl=bla-bla/

(And of course that gives an invalid error)

So I'm not sure what to do now.

Thanks

Which rewrite rule are you using? This one should work correctly:

RewriteRule ^bla/(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/forum/bla-bla/$1 [L,R=301]
