Possible to manually change links for threads?
 

Hi there, is it possible to manually change links of specific threads?
For example, site.com/showthread.php?t=123 and we just want this url changes to site.com/how-to-do-that.
Just some specific threads that only user-id 1 (and maybe other admins, not mods) may change or use it.
Requires modifying php files? Database tables?
I'm not sure what exactly to do.
Thanks in advance

If you only want to do it against a few threads, you can just write a few .htaccess rewrite rules (without redirect) that when a specific URL is called, they internally call a different URL.

However if it has to be more flexible, you're going to have to create a dynamic .htaccess rewrite rule and additionally modify some files (mainly showthread.php) which will take too much time/work for me to explain to you in a post here.
