XF 1.1 extra "forum" in friendly url rewrite

[Douglas Taylor]

I have a installation of XenForo in a subdirectory: forums.jetcareers.com

However, my XF is producing urls like: http://forums.jetcareers.com/forums/general-topics.8/

Is there a way I can produce urls like http://forums.jetcareers.com/general-topics.8/ ??

Thanks! 12 hours of migration and ready for bed .... Zzzzzz

The forums is part of the URL and denotes the content type.

For example, see the URL for this forum: http://xenforo.com/community/forums/xenforo-questions-and-support.25/

It would require an add-on to change or remove that.

Don't think you can remove the forums from the url but you can change it.

http://xenforo.com/community/threads/change-forums-route-to-view.22998/

If you have URL redirects in place this will affect those most likely.

Correct. It can be changed (with that addon) but not removed.

If you have URL redirects in place this will affect those most likely.

Old "forums" links are automatically redirected to "view" when you install that addon.
