Changing URL of "Guidelines" page from /faq to /guidelines

[Jonathan5]

Continuing the discussion from Possible to change URL for /faq page?:

@j127

This is a hack, and someone might come along with a better way, but something like this would probably work in the meantime.

Is the method mentioned here still the best way of changing the Guidelines page’s URL from /faq to /guidelines?

(It adds a second tab called Guidelines by setting faq url to /guidelines, and hides the original tab using CSS.)

maybe have a look at this first:

Restore "Guidelines"

FWIW You get that added page when you add an URL to the faq url admin setting: [faq url] [guidelines/faq] The ‘Guidelines’ in green goes to the regular FAQ topic, and the ‘FAQ’ in blue goes to the link you placed in the faq url setting.

Thanks. I think that just explains the problem (better than I have) rather than supplies a solution.

To restate the problem using the screenshots above – I’d like to get rid of the green-bordered Guidelines tab completely (I can customise the name of the blue-bordered tab so that it says “Guidelines”).

Or some other way of having a “Guidelines” tab have the URL /guidelines instead of /faq.

heh i will not soon forget that faq guidelines puzzle topic

i can probably figure out how to hide it but i’d have to enable it do it or find a site that has one…

does this work?

.nav-pills .nav-item-guidelines {
    display: none;
}

I was just about to do that hack myself . Haven’t seen another way of doing it..

It does, and I think this is the way to go, as there are no more straightforward solution to at this time to my knowledge

So, I think the answer to:

@Jonathan5

is “Yes”.
