User Unfriendly URLs

[Moedred]

I’m considering a move from vB 3. Posts refer to other posts and threads with user unfriendly (strictly numerical) URLs going back to 2000. Will all existing thread URLs be preserved, and is there a setting to continue applying user unfriendly URLs going forward?

Yes you can add a simple script to redirect to the new URL.

is there a setting to continue applying user unfriendly URLs going forward?

Yes.
