Viewing Direct link not working without .html

Direct link not working without .html



User: Gwyn B. 10 years ago
Hi. I paid to do a promoted link on Facebook that I directed to my page www.ymcacampbenson.org/gift

But for some reason it won't work unless I make it: www.ymcacampbenson.org/gift.html

I can't make the change on Facebook before it's a locked and paid for post. Is there anything I can do to make it work without the .html?

A URL needs to be to a file with a file extension or a folder containing an index.html file.

You would need to either add the .html file extension or create a fold named "gift" with an index.html file that redirected to the actual page.

To create the folder you would need to create a directory named "gift". Use the first page of this directory to recreate the page "gift.html". The first page of a directory is an index.html so the URL - www.ymcacampbenson.org/gift - will open the directory folder and the page with the file name gift.html
