Hello Paul,

This very subject was discussed last week...  if you would like to read the thread in question then you'll find it here:

https://helpcenter.websitex5.com/en/post/213751

The same principles and techniques can be applied in your own case.

Note, however, that this only changes the appearance of the URL in the browser address bar.  It doesn't alter the true address of the page on your server in any way.

Therefore, you would not be able to visit your 'contact' page by typing www.foa-ltd.co.uk/contact into the browser address bar, as this will be seen as a folder/directory (as opposed to a file) by the browser.

Kind regards,

Paul
