Hello,
I want not to show any IDs in the generated links like here:
http://www.it-playground.net/blog/16-the-curious-incident-of-missing-system-restore-points . Or at least to be able to control which ones to have ids etc. For instance the users are shown with user ids as well . Please check the site for getting an idea under /authors etc
I have already spoken to the support of SH404SEF and they let me know that the issue is with EasyBlog and they can't provide me with a working solution. So i am contacting you. Can you help? This is a production site so no backend details can be unleashed currently. I could create a test instance on another subdomain if such is needed. Thanks.
Hi there,

Sorry for the delay of this reply.

To disable IDs in the generated links is to go to Backend>Components>EasyBlog>Setting>SEO>General
then disable Unicode Aliases as shown at this link http://screencast.com/t/tk7g17hFIjf

As for "least to be able to control which ones to have ids etc", we cannot achieve that.

Hope this help

Why disable unicode aliases? The site is running on Bulgarian, English and German. I just do not want to have IDs in the links.. Please advise.

Hey there,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here.

Unfortunately that was not possible to only disable these ids in the link URL when you turn on `unicode aliases` option from backend, because this is the default behaviour on the system to determine if that post URL using unicode aliases, system can identify where this post come from.

Hi,
Thanks for getting back. Will this be fixed in future? I tested this and it works for BG and DE for now.. links are in latin only but the the titles stay as they should be. I would appreciate it if there were any option to use permalinks in other non latin languages as well.

Thanks,
nimdas

Hey Nimdas,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply,

I've checked in the code, it seems like that was not possible to achieve this, when I remove the `id` from the code (Enabled this option `unicode aliases`), then you try to access that discussion post, it will hitting the error unable to find this post.
