Adding a trailing slash at the end of the URL slug using Webflow

To add a trailing slash at the end of the URL slug in Webflow, you can follow these steps:

1. Login to your Webflow account and navigate to your project.
2. Select the page you want to add the trailing slash to from the Pages panel.
3. On the right-hand side of the Designer, click on the "Settings" tab.
4. Under the "URL" section, you will see the "Slug" field. Enter or update the desired slug for your page.
5. After the slug, add a forward slash "/" to indicate the trailing slash. For example, if your slug is "about," change it to "about/".
6. Once you have made the changes, click outside the slug field to save your settings.
7. Finally, publish your project to see the updated URL with the trailing slash.

Adding a trailing slash at the end of the URL slug can improve SEO and make the URLs more consistent and user-friendly.

Adding an uppercase in the URL slug without using a 301 redirect in Webflow

In Webflow, it is not possible to directly add an uppercase in the URL slug without using a 301 redirect. Webflow automatically converts uppercase characters in the slug to lowercase. However, there are a couple of workarounds you can use:

1. Use the %20 code for whitespace: Instead of using an uppercase character, you can use the "%20" code to represent whitespace. For example, instead of having a slug like "myPage", you can use "my%20page" to achieve a similar effect.

2. Create a custom page with a different slug: If you need to have an uppercase character in the URL slug, you can create a custom page in Webflow with a different slug that includes the desired uppercase character. Then, you can set up a 301 redirect from the custom page to the actual page with the lowercase slug. This way, users will see the uppercase character in the URL, but it will redirect to the lowercase slug.

Note: It's important to consider the impact of changing URLs on SEO before making any revisions. If you're planning to make significant changes to your URL structure, it is recommended to set up proper redirects to avoid any negative effects on search rankings.
