You know how when you put a . in the blog title, it makes a node. And if you don't do that, every time you change the title, the URL for that blog changes.
HOWEVER, there are some blogs, specifically older (~2012 and before) blogs, that the URL has been set to some specific words like "So-and-So's-bio"
!!!just using these below as examples because i don't remember any newer ones like it!!!
http://endlessforest.org/community/css-practice-i-cannot-colour-coordina...
http://endlessforest.org/community/gehirns-bio
http://endlessforest.org/community/bio-beautiful-white-albino-doe-3-ofli...

So. If you know how to cement the URL to where it's a specific string of words that isn't changed when the title is changed, pls pls pls share your wisdom. Mods of the Info account would love to know. :')

If you go to comment on blogs

If you go to comment on blogs like that, you'll get a link like this:
http://endlessforest.org/community/comment/reply/111641#comment-form
Take that url, remove "/comment/reply" and replace it with "node", also remove the "#comment-form".
It should look like this:
http://endlessforest.org/community/node/111641
This is a functional node code to this blog being used as an example.

I think the reasons titles get stuck like that comes after a certain amount of edits or changes where the site decides "f u" and settles with the code whether you like it or not. (:
Unfortunately idk if there's any way to actually change the url of a blog like that. But noding it is at least neater.

HOPE THIS HELPS. <3

YEAH we're good with nodes,

YEAH we're good with nodes, but we were looking for a way to have worded URLs so we can make a link that's easier to remember, like these:
http://endlessforest.org/community/weather-updates/
http://endlessforest.org/community/pictogram-building/
But make it to where the words stick, that way we can update the title of the blog (like to share weather events) without it changing the URL, so the URL is still simple and practical.
Thank you though I really appreciate your help. <3
