When I add an internal link on my Discourse instance like… https://MyWebsite.com/t/MyCategory It will resolve to a more user friendly link that looks like… My Category - My Website Name Notice how it includes - My Website Name But when I post an internal link from Meta.Discourse.org in the Meta Discourse instance, It does not include - Meta Discourse as shown below. About the Feature category How can I achieve this on my own Discourse instance? I dont want - Meta Discourse or - My Website Name from showing in these resolved links. Thanks! UPDATE I have changed the links above to better represent my question. SOLVED The reason why the Meta Discourse link does not show - Meta Discourse and my website link does, is because my website link is for a category, while the meta.discourse link is for a topic as @supermathie has pointed out. To combat this issue on my own website, I will simply use [My Category](https://MyWebsite.com/t/MyCategory) markdown to avoid it adding the - My Website Name to the end of it. as @Heliosurge has pointed out. Thanks both for your helpful input!

Is the link being used internal use? There is also an option to Wrap Text in [Text]followed by the link wraped in “(link)” ie This topic post#1 [This topic post#1](https://meta.discourse.org/t/how-to-remove-website-name-links-shared-in-a-topic-post/257646?u=heliosurge) You can also do this to the link [This topic post#1](https://meta.discourse.org/t/ /257646) If internal you can shortner it to this. [This topic post#1](/t/ /257646)

This will be of interest for you and other users [Screenshots_2023-03-09-18-07-54] [Screenshots_2023-03-09-18-08-16] Share link shortener

Excellent suggestion for both Category link and tags.

[תמונה] Dan DeMontmorency: I think he was looking to strip the link down if not mistaken to bare minimum. Negative. No matter how long or short the URL is, its resolved to a friendly name MyCategory/Topic - MyWebsiteName [תמונה] Dan DeMontmorency: My final shortened link is handy as it also prevents an issue if the client changes domain name breaking the links. Regarding the shortened link… [תמונה] Dan DeMontmorency: [This topic post#1](/t/ /257646) I love that feature! I was worried that if someone was to right click and copy the link it would copy /t/ /257646 but it will actually still copy the entire URL which is great for those who right click and share outside of the forum. Win-Win :). Thanks for the tip!

You don’t need that newline; you can do e.g.: [This Topic](/t/257646) This Topic

Win-Win :). Thanks for the tip! This handy if your also considering a domain change as all links that use site domain in the l8nk will break. A client decided to change from “.ai” to “.com” had to fix some important links manually and any post with images still requored using the wrench to rebuild html o fix image displays in posts.

[תמונה] Dan DeMontmorency: A client decided to change from “.ai” to “.com” had to fix some important links manually They should have used the discourse remap script - that’s what we do transparently when we have customers change their hostname.

[תמונה] Michael Brown: This is kind of what I was wondering… since we exclude the site name from intra-site topic links, we may want to also exclude the site name from intra-site category links. I agree, I feel its irrelevant to have the site name shown within the same site. Imagine if every Google Search result included - Google to the end of the title lol. It is however useful to retain the site name for outside links though. [תמונה] Michael Brown: I should mention there’s another way of doing this that might suit you: #feature::category (#contribute:feature) gives you a direct link to the category. That’s a very nifty feature (still requires the need to educate others who post on my website, but great for personal use…and those who actually read documentation lol). I tried that on my website, but it just created a bolded #Category it does not include the nice folder icon. Is that a theme component?

[תמונה] Michael Brown: [תמונה] Heliosurge: A client decided to change from “.ai” to “.com” had to fix some important links manually They should have used the discourse:remap rake task - that’s what we do transparently when we have customers change their hostname. Well that would fall to me to complete. Thanks Now I know for future. What is the exact commandline or was that it? Still learning a lot. lol

Still learning a lot. lol I’d recommend this guide: [תמונה] Change the domain name or rename your Discourse Self-Hosting bookmark This guide explains how-to change the domain name of your Discourse site, and includes information about setting up DNS changes, editing configuration files, updating site settings, and correcting social logins and post content to reflect your new domain name. warning This guide is for self-hosted Discourse instances that were installed using our installation guide on GitHub.

Oh, I switched my domains, but just did a remap function in the console which is basically Find & Replace all URL instances to the new domain to fix broken links. This was the guide I followed: Change the domain name or rename your Discourse
