How do I add a slash at the end of URLs

Hi,
I am searching how to add a terminal slash after the urls, specifically in the posts list. Could you tell me how can I do this?
Thank you

It would be semantically wrong as it would imply that each article resides in its own folder. Furthermore, depending on what url schema you currently use, it may result into conflicts.

Thank you Yiannis, yes you are right but there is no extension of a file (php,…) and so when I want to post on Facebook, it does not get the image.

Please could you supply a link of something you’re trying to post? I’m curious why Facebook enforces a trailing slash on links and refuses to load image content without it.

In general, we try to stick to the following conventions:

  • Anything with a ‘list’ context gets a trailing slash, which indicates there’s more under here.
  • Any individual single content (article, image, etc) gets no trailing slash to denote it’s a final endpoint.

The upcoming txp version has now a preference to add (remove) a slash to (from) all txp URLs. Please test who can with various mixes of permlink modes (note that the demo site will not work since it does not support clean modes).
