URLs and trailing slashes
Brightspot retrieves assets using a permalink. For example, a visitor wants to view the URL http://example.com/menus
, so Brightspot retrieves the asset whose permalink is menus
.
URLs with a trailing slash can be ambiguous. If a visitor wants to view http://example.com/menus/, Brightspot can do one of the following:
Remove the trailing slash, and retrieve the asset at the permalink menus.
Retain the trailing slash, and retrieve the asset at the permalink menus/.
Additionally, if a visitor wants to view http://example.com/menus, Brightspot can add a trailing slash and retrieve the asset at the permalink menus.
