    Hi,

    Shouldn't admin talk take advantage of XenForo's fuul friendly urls? It would help improve SEO.

    In fact, I much prefer those urls to these numbered URLs.

    Hello @oman,

    I ran a small test between this forum and my last one and didn’t find much of an improvement over using the URL’s we’re using now, or using URL’s with words in them. I like the shorter URL’s for social networking and sharing sites. I’ll also sometimes edit an article or thread title do fix spelling errors or make them more descriptive from time to time so having the words in the URL is a bit of an issue there.
    If I could have removed the word “threads” by default in the URL, I would have a long time ago..lol

    I'm open to any article out there stating this short url setup is worse than a longer one with words in them.
