When a user posts a link, such as example-http://locl.org/questions/category/oxfordshire/

It is being abreviated to example-http://locl.org/questions/

Hi@cagliostro – thanks for your response. That’s not really the issue I think…

I want to keep the base page slug.

I don’t want Anspress to abbreviate in the context of an answer. For example if I wanted to link this question and copy the url from my browser as follows:

Let’s see what happens…

Yes- so even though the link I wrote was _https://anspress.io/questions/question/links-abbreviated-to-give-incorrect-link/?show_answer=16403 it’s geting abbreviated to: _https://anspress.io/questions/

What is the reason for having such a permalink:

“/questions/question/”

None. Adds nothing and only takes valuable space of the URL. Google doesn’t like long urls so actually you are wasting some SEO.

And not sure what you mean “I don’t want Anspress to abbreviate in the context of an answer”. Removing the “Questions” doesn’t do anything like that.

In any case, that was the problem and the solution was what i posted.
