Can you change default page URL's in UNA?
One of my upcoming projects for our site is setting up rewrites for URL's like how it is on this site - the rules that replace long things like /view-persons-profile/ with short things like /u/. I found the instructions for how to do so using phpMyAdmin on the discussions forum.
But I find myself wanting to change the URL of several pages too, and I'm wondering what is the best way to do that? I see that it's actually possible to change the page URL in Developer, and then it seems like the only other step would be finding all instances of the item in the Navigation module and changing those too. But is that the wrong way to do it - would updates erase the changes?

Hello @Indie Sellers Guild !
Yes, you're on the right way. If necessary the URL can be corrected in the `sys_permalinks` table.

Oh no, now I'm confused! Which is the best method for changing a page URL, to go into developer and change the URI and the URL fields, as well as changing the links in the Navigation menus, or is it better to create a new line in the sys_seo_uri_rewrites table? (I tried creating one for a page URL rather than an inner portion of a URL and it did work!)

The Developer way is the most reliable.
