Document Alias
We have just recently installed Kentico and I have noticed something unusual with the Document Alias. We are trying to customize our URL's for SEO purposes, but I noticed that if the document alias name and the Document URL Path are the same, the Document Alias will override the Document URL Path. Here is a quick example just to clarify:

Our About Us section has a Document Alias named: About-Us, and the Document URL Path is named: /about-us. The main issue I have is that although they names are the same, in the URL About Us is capitalized, not lowercase.

See attached images for reference:

RE:Document Alias
Hello,

Could you please let me know, what's the desired behavior in this case? Just to let you know, you can redirect all upper case characters to lower case if you set the setting "Redirect invalid case URLs to their correct versions" in CMSSiteManager / Settings / URLs and SEO to Redirect all requests to lower case URLs.

Best regards,

RE:Document Alias
Thanks Boris.

The desired effect I am going for is to try and set all the URL's to lowercase.
