How to avoid redirected comment URLs?

[yxleif]

Hello.

I have an issue with my Invision Community forum website, and that I am getting a huge amount of URLs in Google Search console that Google deems as "page with redirect".

This is an issue from an SEO standpoint, as this wastes Google's crawl budget.

It seems as if the major issue is the links to user's posts in the "Activity" feed.

If you click a post/comment that has been done recently in that feed, the URL will look like this:

forumdomain.com/index.php?/topic/12386-thread-name/&do=findComment&comment=244173

But it will instantly redirect to this:

forumdomain.com/index.php?/topic/12386-thread-name/#comment-244173

Is there a way to remove this redirect and just link directly to the final URL?

I just updated to 4.7.19 but the redirected links are the same. Is this a setting I need to change in order to fix this issue?
