    Fails to redirect paths with a '.' in the path

    Hi there. I am faced with needing to redirect client URLs that had a full stop/period in the path name, like so:

    /simon.miller

    Unfortunately when added to the 301 Tracker they go to the standard Umbraco 404.

    Other URLs such as /simonmiller will redirect fine.

    Is there any way to make these redirects work?

    Cheers
    Simon

    Hi Simon and welcome to our :)

    If I understand you correctly you need the period to be allowed in the name?

    If so try going to /config/umbracoSettings.config and go to the <requesthandler> settings and uncomment this line <char org="."></char>

    Don't know if you need to handle some settings on the server to allow the period to appear in the url though.

    Hope this helps.

    Well the url redirect does not work if the URL has a period or underscore, bascially any special characters

    "/dk/Menu/Support/Dokumenter" works however "/dk/Menu/Kilder/Digitale+og+analoge+kilder" doesnt

    is there anyway to make a redirections

    Cheers
