XF 1.2 Changing Landing Page

[The Dark Wizard]

I have xF installed in root, so you see the board when you go to www.mydomain.com

I made a page the new index, so the board goes to www.mydomain.com/forums as expected.

However for somereason the index URL broke, before it would display the contents of the page I selected at www.mydomain.com

However now that I updated to the latest xF and rebuild my dev site, now visting mydomain.com shows the entire URL for the page.

I don't remember how I had gotten it before the Board reset for our dev site. Any ideas? I know it didn't require addons and it was all done with xF.

This is really driving us up the way.

I don't know how I had done it before, was it just a fluke? Reading around xF shows that it shouldn't be possible unless that was dated information but for the longest time we had a page set as the index, while the URL stayed the same, IE. www.mydomain.com

No www.mydomain.com/pages/insertpagenamehere

The best I can do it seems is change the page's url with the route filter.

All fixed out.

Apparently adding the index as pages/mypagename with an ending /

gives me the result I want.

@Mike is this intentional?

Yes, you need the trailing slash. This is shown within the description.

Didn't seem obvious to me at the start that I was missing it.

Sorry .
