When I create a page called "pagename" under the book called "bookname", the relative address becomes "./books/bookname/page/pagename". I'd like to simplify or customize this address like "./b/bookname/p/pagename". I hope that there will be new env items. Here is what I think:

The default values are "books", "page", "chapter".
If the values are set to "one", "two" "three", then it forms the relative address "./one/bookname/two/pagename" or "./one/bookname/three/chaptername".

Can this feature be implemented structurally? I had modified "/books/" from "app/Entities/Book.php" and "app/Entities/Page.php" to "/b/", but the book hasn't been redirected to "./b/bookname".

Thanks for your request @ististudio.

This is somewhat related to #1490

If you could explain the benefits that this request would bring to BookStack users it would really help show what this request achieves.

I sovled the problem by modifying 'books' from "routes/web.php" to 'b'. Since this method was simpler than I thought, my suggestion may not be necessary.

Thank you for your comment.
