Ok example my forums, which is running vb4.

https://www.yoursite.com/threads/test?goto=newpost

as you can see the above link there "/threads/" and "?goto=newpost"
in the url. I would like to remove both.

which mean it will only show as, no matter wad.
https://www.yoursite.com/test

I believe is possible, if I do some htaccess editing or wad? as I have see a lot people running the same forum version as me. and doesn't have those in their url.

That's because people either use the built in friendly url system or use an addon to do it like dragonbyte seo.

You need to use an addon like final kaoss said.
vBulletin didn't allow to remove threads from the URL by default.

Why

Removing one (newpost) will break the designed functionality.
Removing the other will not actually achive anything [useful].

What problem or issue are either of these causing ?
