Pretty Group and Page URLs

Mick Dawlings Posted in Technical Support 7 months ago

Is there a way for members to get proper URLs for their groups and pages?
Something like Facebook does, www.facebook.com/mypage, www.facebook.com/helloworld etc.

I think they are called 'pretty' urls?

Right now, it's /group/23/edit which looks pretty bad.

Also, I see there is no way to delete posts once made. I found someone else asking about this and wanted to delete this.

I tried asking (in a new reply) if a mod could delete this as I've now posted in this;
https://www.opensource-socialnetwork.org/discussion/view/2940/url-alias-for-groups-to-display-url-with-group-name-instead-of-numbers-such-as-group1-group2

However, the reply was refused.

Well many people wants those urls for

Groups,
Pages
Profiles
Videos
Blogs
Events
.etc

We can not able to integrate all of them. The main problem is checking all the page handlers. What if someone creates a profile example games

website.com/games

and in future you enable a game component with same page handler. There would be a really issue to handle the those actual pages.

So MANY things that cannot be done with this software, it's crazy frustrating.

This would be good and frustrating that it can't be done here.
