Changing index.html to Index.html

Hi

We have a strange intranet that only recognises Index.html with a capital ‘I’.

Is there a way I could force Publii to publish Index.html or do I just need to edit the ftp files?

Hi,

Unfortunately in this case the only solution will be some custom shell script which will replace file names everywhere in the rendered files.

Many thanks @Tomaz – it is a bit of an unusual requirement, but it’s only one filename to change I think.

I don’t think it will matter whether index or Index is used in the HTML links – I think it’s just that our system only recognises Index.html as the homepage.

@tonywaghorn – we are using index.html in many places – changing it for variable filename is risky and can lead to many side effects and changes in the code. Your case is in my opinion very specific edge-case so I do not see a reason to add it to the Publii core. It is a first request for such solution and can be solved in other way (additional shell script which modifies files before deploy).
