Re: Default page

If they bookmarked the index3.htm page, then making your default page index3.php won't do any good.  They'll get a 404 when searching for index3.htm (unless you're rewriting your URLs).  I guess I'm not understanding why you want your default page to be index3.

If you're using pretty URLs, you can have your default page be anything you want.  Just set the page alias of the default page to the desired "filename", and add the desired extension.  You could have "mysite.com/index3", or "mysite.com/index3.htm", or "mysite.com/index3.r2d2" or any other desired URL.

Index should always be the default, I think you can change this through servers settings though.

Hello,

I always make www.domain.tld/index.html the default and / 302 redirecting to /index.html hence I have one and only one home.
This is a webserver topic, not specific to CMSms.
