How to change page URL's in Joomla 3?

Post by manwithknowname » Thu Feb 16, 2023 1:01 pm

Hi everyone,

I'm very new to Joomla - have only really used Wordpress before, so apologies if this is a very basic question.

I'm working on a site where URL's do look to be SEO friendly (eg /page-name/here) vs /2395323) however when I add a new page (using SP Page Builder Pro) I see no way to edit the page URL.

Currently the URL exists here:
https://benitasgardenservices.co.uk/com ... age&id=139

It does seem to have been published - I just can't see any option to change the page URL itself.

Appreciate any help

Edit - sorry, figured it out now! Needed to add it to the page menu first.

Exactly. Through the Menu manager you can set any URL alias you need. You can also enable SEF functions through configuration.
If you do not programm your life, someone else will do it for you.
