For anyone with the same problem:

Hello,

It is not recommended to change URLs with a database query. This can cause problems including the lack of 301 redirects.

To change the URL of a channel (i.e. Forum), visit that forum in your browser. Then:

1. Turn on Site Builder, if necessary, by clicking the Edit Site toggle.
2. Edit the page.
3. Save the page.
4. In the Save Dialog, update the URL as you wish.
5. Finish saving the page.
6. Repeat for other channels.

When you save the page, the system will automatically create a 301 redirect record so links to your old URLs will continue to work.


All the best,
Wayne Luke
