coert_g Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 We're looking to remove the IDs from URLs to clean them up, and to possibly omit some categories in the structure. I've looked and tried to adjust the Friendly URLs features under the Advanced Settings, with Rewrite URL activated in the SEO section. I uploaded the htaccess required, but still have troubles when trying to adjust the URLs and remove the ID from them. On occasion when I have removed the ID from the URL, it's simply added "/id=123" at the end of the URL. Is there no way of removing the ID from the URL altogether? When attempting to do so, I came across either the above-mentioned problem, or errors of the page not being found. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart Silvester Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 You cannot remove IDs from the URLs, they are required in order for content to be loaded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coert_g Posted June 25, 2018 Author Share Posted June 25, 2018 Thanks for the response. This seems unusual, given that the addition of extra elements inside the URL is counter-productive to SEO. I noticed that the pages app allows for categories to not show the ID, but in other applications on the CMS, such as the Calendar -- there are IDs in the categories too, not just the record. Are these IDs also not removable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
