Hi,

Isn't it possible to create direct paths with "-" in the path? It does not work on a solution running 8.7.2.8. But should it work?

Yes you can. It works locally on my 8.8.

Be aware that if you have a page with the URL page-name you cannot make a direct path that is also called page-name.

We need a link to dig into it further if you do not have it working.

Hi Nicolai,

I just tried with "/test-test" and this worked. When the customer tried, they first had a page with URL "/google-maps". Then they changed the name of that page and tried creating a direct path with "/google-maps" into that page - and that didn't work. Ever experienced something like this?

No, have not seen that.

They should not start the direct path with "/" - just "google-maps"

Okay, what's the difference? It works for me using both with and without the "/".

Ah, good question :-).

It is not needed anyways, the code seems to check for it...

Great :-)

I think I've found the problem with the path that wasn't working. They've made a copy of their website so a page with "/google-maps" url actually exists. So I guess that answers my own question :-)
