That's right.
This is the only thing still sucks in WB CMS for SEO reasons.

This would be good not only for SEO, but for plain old incoming links, too.

It is not really handy in general but it may help you in your case:

Uh, tough one - so instead of changing the title of a post I would  enter the title in this script.
Not an easy solution, especially not if other (non-technical) persons are to change titles, too.

Still, thanks for the hint.

Kind regards,
Sam

Sam, did you read Klaus' first suggestion?

Hello Jurgen,

I don't think that this suggestion is a good option.
A menu-Link produces a redirection, not really a page and not good SEO practice.

The best thing ist to build in a feature for renaming link-titles and file-names at will (to separate one of the other, so you have the possibility to rename them separately without mutual influence).
I know about a hack for this, but it should be built in into WB's core. This is a very important feature.

Regards,
Stefek

Yeah, you're probably right, that would be the best option. Maybe a future version will have it.
