Underscores in URL

Hey there,
didn’t find anything on this, here’s the thing: Like title says, I want to use underscores in my page’s URLs, but Kirby won’t let me.

Every solution / workaround is mucho appreciado!

I don’t know what’s the solution but I know that hyphens are more SEO friendly than underscores. Maybe you should take that in consideration

I actually don’t know either if there is a way to achieve that without modifying the core, but I agree with @Oziris, https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/76329?hl=en. Or where your old URLs created with underscores?

Yes, I am currently transferring an old page with 100+ postings, so changing URLs isn’t that SEO-friendly either …

In the future I will adhere to using dashes, but for the old stuff I want to keep their style :frowning:

I wonder if you couldn’t do some regex voodoo redirects in your server config or .htaccess instead? Should be pretty straightforward?
