Using pretty URLs in SiteMap 'Visit' link
Permalink 1 user found helpful
I have pretty URLs enabled and they are working as expected.
Let's say I created a page named 'test' that is accessible from the pretty URL:
When I click on the page in the SiteMap UI and choose 'visit' I'm still linked to the non-pretty, cID-based URL:
Since I have pretty URLs enabled, is there any way for the 'visit' link on the sitemap to use the pretty URL instead of the cID-based one?
I'm not saying that I want to remove the cID-based URL, that's obviously required as a fallback, but when pretty URLs are enabled it just doesn't make sense to not also use them, even on the internal SiteMap UI. I often find myself wanting to link a page I'm working on in the sitemap, and then always have to look under properties to get the pretty URL, which is really tedious.

<root_url>/my_awesome_test

<root_url>/index.php?cID=139
