Hello,

I've been playing around with taking an existing site and switching to use the "advanced" url form instead of "humanfriendly" - it's mostly working well, but I've seen an odd behavior with the "-" filling in for spaces.

If I had this: 

  • www.example.com/My-Page; type in www.example.com/MyPage: redirect properly
  • www.example.com/My-Page/Other-Page; type in www.example.com/MyPage/Other-Page: gets a 404

I don't know if that's normal, but it doesn't seem to do it in a default install. It may be that there are more settings I need to change to update an existing site to use the new url provider, but yeah - I just thought I'd note it. If everything old redirects properly, then it would be fantastic to be able to use the extensionless urls.

Thanks,

Mike

Hi Mike,

I think the raison is that www.example.com/MyPage/Other-Page is not a real old url.

The old url for page www.example.com/My-Page/Other-Page

is www.example.com/MyPage/OtherPage

This is because the rewriter/redirector works by full page path (url).

This is the correct answer - it will only redirect the old urls that are a full path - mixing /mypage/other-page was not a real Url beforehand, and so will not automatically redirect.
