Hello Kathie,
Thanks for reaching out to us
It is possible to retain a similar URL structure when migrating a website to Joomla with Nicepage. Joomla allows you to create SEF (Search Engine Friendly) URLs for your pages.
To achieve this, you can follow these general steps:
Create a Menu Item:
- In Joomla, create a menu item for your page. You can do this by going to the "Menus" section in the administrator backend and creating a new menu.
- Add a new menu item and link it to the desired content or page.
Configure SEF URLs:
- Joomla has built-in SEF functionality. You can enable it by going to "System" > "Global Configuration" > "Site" tab.
- Set "Search Engine Friendly URLs" to "Yes" and "Use URL Rewriting" to "Yes" as well.
Configure Article/Content:
- When you create or edit an article (content) in Joomla, make sure to set the article alias to reflect the desired part of the URL.
- You can do this in the "Publishing" tab of the article editor.
Test the URL:
- After configuring the menu item, SEF URLs, and article alias, test the URL to ensure it displays as expected.
Here's a simplified example based on your provided URL:
Remember that you might need to adjust this based on your Joomla setup and preferences. Creating a backup of your site before making significant changes is advisable. If you encounter any issues, you can refer to Joomla's documentation or seek further assistance.
