thanks.  
How can I programmatically create these permalinks? php code is preferred for me. is it possible?

I want to use discourse as a q&a platform in my educational app. My app has a structure like this:  
`course/chapter/lesson`  
So I want the users to be able to create new topics like this:  
`course/chapter/lesson/topic-1`  
`course/chapter/lesson/topic-2`  
etc…  
since this structure isn’t supported by discourse, I want to use this customized permalinks as a redirection tool to created topics. Is it a good idea?
