Discussion Url Change

riverred

hi, my english is bad. Sorry.. I want to change url.

for example;

mydomain.com/vanilla/discussion/6/title ==>> mydomain.com/vanilla/6/title or mydomain.com/vanilla/test/6/title

riverred

mydomain.com/vanilla/discussion/6/title ==>> mydomain.com/vanilla/6/title or mydomain.com/vanilla/test/6/title

Look at this two discussions

https://open.vanillaforums.com/discussion/31488/how-to-make-short-discussion-urls-for-vanilla

In that example I would like to replace "vanilla" by "forum" to avoid confusions

Your address consists of the following parts
Domain: "example.com"
Subfolder: "forum"
Controller: "discussion"
DiscussionID: "123"
Discussion Name: "some-title"

That is standard:
example.com/forum/discussion/123/some-title

That is impossible, because discussions can be named the same:
example.com/forum/some-title

All the rest is possible but beware that there are naming conventions in your forum:
example.com/forum/profile/123/username
Taht is a valid profile link and it must still work if some discussion is named "profile". Therefore you shouldn't use that pattern for discussions:
example.com/forum/some-title/123/some-title

The safest way to get shorter urls is described in the second link above.

exactly what I want;

mydomain.com/vanilla/discussion/6/title ==>> mydomain.com/vanilla/konu/6/title
mydomain.com/vanilla/profile/serkan ==>> mydomain.com/vanilla/profil/serkan
mydomain.com/vanilla/categories ==>> mydomain.com/vanilla/kategori
mydomain.com/vanilla/discussion/comment/82/ ==>> mydomain.com/vanilla/konu/yorum/82/
mydomain.com/vanilla/activity ==>> mydomain.com/vanilla/aktivite

I want to translate all...

@riverred It work as R_J say's above.
I think translate all link would need to change controller names (don't know if it's possible without core changes).

Instead of shortening the "discussion" to "d" make it "konu".

Repeat for all the others.

@R_J a dit :

But this will not change links, so for vanilla it will be /discussion in all liks displayed ?

Oh yes, you are absolutely right! I totally forgot about that. Vanilla has some internal functions which build those links (though not all of them).

There are the functions discussionUrl(), commentUrl() and userUrl which would have to be changed, too. Replacing those functions (by copying them to bootstrap.before.php and changing them there) should take care for some of those "issues"

But I suspect that there are several other places which have some of this words hard coded, e.g. the Smarty functions and class.theme.php

So there might be no way for a 100% transformation...
