    Does anyone know where i can get a plugin or in wordpress admin if its possible to change the URL name of a page.

    As at the moment my forum URL looks like /?id=1 or something like that.

    Obviously id want it /forum

    and also for SEO purposes, i wouldn't want a page about /debt-collection called /?id=2

    If anyone can help id really appreciate it!

    Login to your admin panel, look at
    /wp-admin/options-permalink.php

    By the way, does your host support URL rewriting? (mod_rewrite enabled on Apache?)

    Once you enable custom permalink structure, all your URLs will change according to the tags you mention in your setting.

    Can't change just one though (may be possible, not straightforward)

    beside enable custom permalink structure, use permalink redirect plugin, so your index and traffic do not drop if you change the url permalink.
