Description

A new short URLs / Search Engine Friendly / Rewrite Rule with .htaccess was added to Tiki 2.0 as experimental (great!)

However, this causes issues with pages like:

http://tikiwiki.org/Custom+email+message+to+new+tikiwiki.org+registrantsQuestion
http://tikiwiki.org/TikiWikiRelease1.6Question


Related:
Equivalent characters for page linking, backlinking, searching, etc (ex.: space, underscore, period)

Solution

In .htaccess, change

-RewriteRule
(^/\.+)$ tiki-index.php?page=$1 QSA,L +RewriteRule
(.+)$ tiki-index.php?page=$1 QSA,L


Fixed in 3.0
