Can we disable the URL rewrites?

Instead of: forum.domain.com/forums.html

We are looking for: forum.domain/default.asp

Thanks for any input on accomplishing this.

You can disable URL Rewriting if you do not wish to use it.

You would need to set 'URL Rewriting' to 'No' in the 'SEO Settings' page in the forum admin area.

Once this has been changed you can then delete the forums 'web.config' file.

I updated the web.config file and the SEO setting. The full URLs are now appearing as expected.

Thank you for your assistance!
