Hi guys you see some URLs are just very long so my share buttons in stead share short URLs that point to the same thread.
Could you tell me please if it's OK or it can be a security problem for my forum?
This is the format of the long url and short!

Long URL: http://letsforum.com/Thread-List-of-best...f-all-time

Short URL: http://letsforum.com/showthread.php?tid=36

Thanks

I also want to know about these

In relation to security problems, this would not be a security issue.

However, if you are linking to the shorter URL via your sharing plugin, then you might have issues with SEO (Search Engine Optimization). However, because your short URLs redirect to your long ones, I don't believe you will have an issue with either (SEO or Security).
