How to change permalink structure in phpBB?

Post by Grids »

Hi, thanks for the great forum software. I used it to create 2 forums. :)

While I understand there is no friendly URL support in phpBB and I do find it not really necessary to rank in Google. And I already searched with Google and the relevant results are all about SEO.

I use phpBB 3.2.1.

What I want to know is it possible to change the current url format from this (as example)

Code: Select all

https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=641&t=2429041
To this by default

Code: Select all

https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=2429041
I do understand if I accessed that url it will be redirected to the correct topic. But I don't really need the forum ID and want it to be more short.

I hope you understand my limited English.
