SEO setting to remove/alter "/" in item name when automatically creating custom url.

Example item name: Denon AVR-X6700H 11.2 Channel Network 8K A/V Receiver

This item name has a "/" in it which then gets added to the custom url, creating a subdirectory in the eyes of search engines: /denon-avr-x6700h-11-2-channel-network-8k-a/v-receiver.html

 

It would be great to have a setting in the SEO to change how a "/" in an item name may translate to the custom url.

 

ie, remove, hyphen, etc

/denon-avr-x6700h-11-2-channel-network-8k-av-receiver.html

/denon-avr-x6700h-11-2-channel-network-8k-a-v-receiver.html

  We have this issue as well, I am repeatedly having to go manually correct the auto generated custom urls.

  Maybe a global search/replace function in the SEO settings for itemname -> custom url instead of just limiting it to the "/" as I'.m sure there are other characters people may want to exclude, but the "/" is the big deal for us.

  We are on version 2021.2, but I am not seeing this option. Am I missing it, or are there no options to it?
