This relates to DNN8 and is hopefully a simple question for a seasoned DNN developer.

How can i prevent DNN appending the culture identifier to a URL for a new page?

Here is an example of what i mean:

When i create a new page called "Some New Page" and choose the option to create localized versions i get the following pages created:

en-GB (default): (hostname)/some-new-page

fr-FR: (hostname)/some-new-page-fr-FR
pt-PT: (hostname)/some-new-page-pt-PT

The page URLs are editable of course and you can manually change all back to being "(hostname)/some-new-page" but i'd prefer that a site's content manager wouldn't have to do something like that (i'd like to make content creation as painless as possible).

I've also noticed that with pages named as in the above example if i create inbound links like "(hostname)/some-new-page" then the link resolves to the page for the default culture - which is not what would have been intended.

Best,

Alistair
