- Description
In previous version, the backslash "\" was allowed as a character in page names, and you could access pages like this fine, but for some reason in tiki 11 if a pagename has a backslash in it, one cannot access the page (get "page does not exist".
I tested in a tiki 11 instance, and it appears that this is not the default behavior, and you need to have search engine friendly url's enabled and have enabled your apache clean urls too, which I could not test on the instance.
UPDATE: replacing the _htaccess file with a _htaccess from a previous version makes it possible to navigate to these pages with backspaces in their names. Note that the url generated by both files are the same. Not sure exactly how htaccess works, but thats the deal.
- Solution
I had tested this issue on both trunk and 12.x
It's working well with and without "search engine friendly url's".
