Our links that end with a number are being changed to add an extra -a, as seen in the links above for a forum, Battlefield 4 in this case. It happens for all forums with these numbers at the end, We really have no idea what could have caused this but i figured to open a ticket and see if it could be related, or even amended, using DBSEO. Thank you for the time, and hopefully there is a solution!

This is working as intended. The reason for this is complex, and I should really write a canned response for this, but the short version is that it avoids conflicts with other URL formats that, when broken down to its machine-language components, would confuse the system.

Finally able to find the reply, sorry for being late. It seems this just recently happened though. Is there any way to fix it, or in this case I guess, create a work around? Many of our forums end with a number, so this is very, very troublesome to us. Thanks for the reply

This has happened for many months now, v1.1.4 of DBSEO is quite old. If this is a vBSEO import, try turning on the vBSEO Legacy URL setting in the rewrite settings.
