Hello,

I'm not sure if I'm missing anything here. Where is the option to remove "questions" part from URL?

This is possible by editing askbot/urls.py file, but removing numeric ID cannot be easily done now.

thanks. Even I want to change /questions/ to be /posts/ in my site.

Another follow on question - How do I know if there are any dependencies when I change some code in askbot? Do you use any tools for checking any dependencies? Thanks.

Thank you! Removing the nemuric ID part won't be necessary. If want to host askbot in a subdomain, I'll expect that it will start right from there, not in (virtual) question subfolder. Why is this default behavior? To fit with other django app perhaps?

@MehdiHKhan even in sub domans you get routed to /questions. This is to show all the questions in the homepage. @Evgeny can we show and change this default behavior? Thanks

I agree, the /questions prefix is unnecessary on the main page it should be just /.
