[Radiant] Trailing slash for URLs
Hi all, search engines consider URLs /some-page and /some-page/ to be two different pages (well, at least Google analytics does). I'd like to get rid of that. Would you expect Radiant to redirect clients to the trailing-slash-form of an URL, or should that be the duty of the web server above? Any comments are appreciated.

Regards, if the issue is people manually typing or linking to your pages in inconsistent ways then i think sticking a rewrite rule in your server config is the easiest way. however if the issue is that your site template uses inconsistent urls then i'd fix that first. ___ Radiant mailing list Post: Radiant@radiantcms.org Search: http://radiantcms.org/mailing-list/search/ List Site: http://lists.radiantcms.org/mailman/listinfo/radiant Radiant: http://radiantcms.org Extensions: http://ext.radiantcms.org

I second that. If you want to ensure the trailing slash use nginx or Apache or if you want that in your project, use http://github.com/jtrupiano/rack-rewrite -- Jim Gay http://www.saturnflyer.com http://www.saturnflyer.com/blog/jim/2010/04/02/commenting-in-radiantcms-with-a-gem/ ___ Radiant mailing list Post: Radiant@radiantcms.org Search: http://radiantcms.org/mailing-list/search/ List Site: http://lists.radiantcms.org/mailman/listinfo/radiant Radiant: http://radiantcms.org Extensions: http://ext.radiantcms.org
