♥raiwa Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 @@Steve_s, It is not significant for Google for to analyze the page content, to interprete the cpath like 235 or like 2-35 (2[space]35). You should rather consider to use SEO URLs. Source: http://blog.woorank.com/2013/04/underscores-in-urls-why-are-they-not-recommended/#.Vcc7nvn508I Google has clearly stated that when it comes to URL structure, using hyphens rather than underscores makes it much easier for them to identify what the page is about. Take a look at an excerpt below from the Google support blog on URL structure. Google Claiming that Hyphens are Preferable to Underscores in URLs Senior Google Engineer Matt Cutts clearly explains in this Google Webmaster Help Video about underscores in URLs that hyphens are used as word separators while underscores do not specify any function.

♥bruyndoncx Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 so in fact, in this particular case, underscore is preferred as the category ids are not words KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON I do not use the responsive bootstrap version since i coded my responsive version earlier, but i have bought every 28d of code package to support burts effort and keep this forum alive (albeit more like on life support). So if you are still here ? What are you waiting for ?!
