Trailing Slash on default.aspx

Hi,

Under the Setting page, there are options we use/not use URLS with trailing slash (or leave the url as is). I have set my site to "Always use URLs with trailing slash". Then, I found a small issue. I found my default page always go to http://www.[example].com/default.aspx/. Even going to the root would redirect to above page.

Is there any way I can hide the default.aspx?

Cheers,
Matt

RE:Trailing Slash on default.aspx

Hi,

You can add this key to your web.config file with value set to true:

<add key="CMSUseTrailingSlashOnlyForExtensionLess" value="true" />

This will ensure, that the trailing slash will be applied only if there is no extension in the URL. If there is some extension, trailing slash will not be added.

Best regards,
Juraj Ondrus

Does this version support the CMSUseTrailingSlashOnlyForExtensionLess key? I could not find this key in the Documentation - Appendix C Web.config parameters. Cheers, Matt


Kentico Support	kentico_jurajo - 6/28/2010 8:29:25 AM RE:Trailing Slash on default.aspx Hi, This should work, it is just not documented in the developer's guide. I noticed our technical writer about it. Best regards, Juraj Ondrus


Member	seanbun - 6/29/2010 12:36:54 AM RE:Trailing Slash on default.aspx I tried the CMSUseTrailingSlashOnlyForExtensionLess key on Version 5.0. Unfortunately, it did not work. It still redirects my xxxx.aspx to xxxx.aspx/


Member	seanbun - 6/29/2010 12:38:16 AM RE:Trailing Slash on default.aspx Again, my Kentico version is v5.0.3715. Cheers, Matt


Kentico Support	kentico_jurajo - 6/29/2010 9:25:17 AM RE:Trailing Slash on default.aspx Hi, My fault. Regrettably this key was added into 5.5 version so it won't work in 5.0 version. You will need to upgrade to achieve this functionality. I am sorry for the confusion. Best regards, Juraj Ondrus


Member	seanbun - 7/1/2010 7:56:14 PM RE:Trailing Slash on default.aspx Okay. I will try to upgrade to 5.5 or work around with URL Rewrite. Cheers, Matt
