LiquidFractal Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 So I'm creating a Club (Space) for a group called the Complex Processes Research Group. Well and good; I can create blogs, forums, etc. etc. However, the only option we have for externally linking to these resources is the standard (and, may I say, ugly) URLs to generic blogs and forums, e.g. https://www.liquidfractal.org/blogs/blog/54-blog/ The option to create custom FURLs to change it to something like, for example, https://www.liquidfractal.org/blogs/CPRG-events-and-info-blog would be a far superior choice for so many reasons (Google being one of them!). I for one would like to see this option for all Club features - anyone else? EDIT: In fact - and even better - shouldn't all Clubs have the option of having the following structure? (following the above example) -- https://www.liquidfractal.org/the-complex-processes-research-group/CPRG-events-and-info-blog https://www.liquidfractal.org/the-complex-processes-research-group/videos or similar variations? @InvisionHQ Could this possibly be incorporated into Clubs Enhancements?
Joel R Posted May 19, 2018 Posted May 19, 2018 @liquidfractal just to remind you that @Kevin Carwile has a custom Furl app that's extremely powerful.

So much this! And paired with his "Automated Rules" app, you can automatically generate FURLs for any club that's created. It's great!
LiquidFractal Posted May 20, 2018 Author Posted May 20, 2018 @Joel R @AlexWright thanks for the reminder. I had actually looked into using just that a little while ago, but found myself wanting some documentation on it. Now that I've had some time to tinker, I'm good on everything except the auto-fURL generating rules. This said - and not to diss Kevin's great apps - native functionality is theoretically better than 3rd-party in my opinion. But hey - this works.

Still waiting on a fix for those @Charles.
