Description of problem

My issue is described in this forum post:
https://dnncommunity.org/forums/using-dnn/optimization/issue-with-friendly-url/#12705

My url's look something like:

http://www.website.com/page/subpage/parameter/123/nice-friendly-name

And this worked on some DNN instances, and not on some other instances.
On some instances of DNN whenever I went to this url, I got a 301 redirect which removed the last part of the url, so I ended up on:

http://www.website.com/page/subpage/parameter/123

For SEO and nice-and-friendly url's in communication I think this is a BAD thing...

I noticed there is an entry in the tabsettings which influences this behaviour, but was at some time removed (I think) from the UI/tabsettings page.

So whenever I added an entry in the tabsettings for this tabid, with the SettingName 'DoNotRedirect' and the value of 'True', DNN would not perform the 301 redirect, and keep my nice and friendly url.

So I think it would be a good idea to add this option back into the page/tab settings...

Description of solution

Add the option back into the tab/page settings for the 'DoNotRedirect' setting.
