Hi, Thank you for your suggestion, we appreciate it and, will work as quickly as possible to enable using Named Routes. Kind regards, Magdalena

@Magdalena Dembna by using only string values, we lose the capability to used Named Routes, which is an extremely helpful feature of the Vue Router.

Further more, by using the method of :to="{ name: 'routeName' }" in mdb-vue, the router works as intended and will route you to the proper route, just like a router-link would.

Hi, Property 'to' is expecting a string with a href to a desired location - it depends on your routes structure. Kind regards, Magdalena
