404 for a post with capital U in custom url
My blog post from last year has the url https://zuiker.com/desire-U2. It previously displayed fine in Txp v.4.8
My Txp now is v4.9.0.
The post is getting a 404 error.
I tried other configurations of the URL and the uppercase U seems to be the culprit. Why would that be?

Re: 404 for a post with capital U in custom url
When saving articles, doesn’t Textpattern automatically generate a URL title, which is usually lowercase? How did you create an UPPERCASE one?
Have you changed servers recently?

Server Configuration
Some web servers (like those running on Linux/Unix) treat URLs as case-sensitive by default. This means “example.com/Page” and “example.com/page” are considered different addresses. If the server is not configured to handle case insensitivity, users might encounter 404 errors or be directed to different pages based on capitalization.

Very strange. I was going to ask if you had any luck by changing the Use trailing slash pref, but the capital letter thing has thrown a spanner in that one.

Agree. FWIW: the article url title works on the demo server in the default and in /title-only permalink configurations. Very weird that it’s just the one article and not another. And it works if you make u lowercase?
