To switch from 'humanfriendly' mode to 'advanced' mode, follow these steps:

  1. Take a backup of the web.config file for your site
  2. Open the web.config file, and search for 'urlformat'. You should find this in the section, like this:

<add name="DNNFriendlyUrl" type="DotNetNuke.Services.Url.FriendlyUrl.DNNFriendlyUrlProvider, DotNetNuke.HttpModules" includePageName="true" regexMatch="[^a-zA-Z0-9 _-]" urlFormat="humanfriendly" />

  1. Change the urlFormat value to 'advanced', like this:

    <add name="DNNFriendlyUrl" type="DotNetNuke.Services.Url.FriendlyUrl.DNNFriendlyUrlProvider, DotNetNuke.HttpModules" includePageName="true" regexMatch="[^a-zA-Z0-9 _-]" urlFormat="advanced" />

  2. Save the web.config file.
  3. Request the home page of the new site - the site is now using the Advanced Url Format.
  4. Fully test the site to ensure it is operating as expected. If any issues are found, restore the web.config backup.
