Summary

0001544: [Site & Forums] Certain links don't work the way they used to (URLs without .php at the end now give a 404)

Description

URLs that were shortened for cleanliness now result in a 404

Example:
'http://zandronum.com/index.php [^]' becomes'http://zandronum.com/index [^]' and loads normally

Actual result:
'http://zandronum.com/index [^]' leads to a 404 error page

Steps To Reproduce

Load any of the following:
'http://zandronum.com/index [^]'
'http://zandronum.com/download [^]'
'http://zandronum.com/credits [^]'
'http://zandronum.com/contact [^]'

'http://zandronum.com/forum/index [^]'
'http://zandronum.com/forum/portal [^]'
'http://zandronum.com/forum/showteam [^]'

Additional Information

If the links need to be changed back to end with .php instead of reverting to previous behavior, let me know.

If we could have a custom 404 page instead of the default one, I could whip one up, similar to this temp page I have prepared:'http://zandronum.com/index_offline.php [^]'
All I'd need to do is add a place in the page code to insert the dynamic "The requested URL [url here] was not found on this server." text

Notes
(0007421) Blzut3 (administrator) 2013-10-18 03:17	Well index should always be just "/" :P I'm not sure why the .htaccess rewrite isn't working off hand. I won't be able to check it out until late tomorrow.

(0007430) infurnus (developer) 2013-10-18 20:06	Okay, good to know it's just .htaccess I included the index just as an example, I'll put some /contact/index.php and other stuff in as a placeholder for now
