Trailing Forward Slash gives 404

Post by Sergeant_Steve »

If there is a trailing Forward Slash / at the end of any Mod Portal URL you get a 404 error.

This link will work:

This link will give a 404 error:
https://mods.factorio.com/mod/MaintenanceMadness/

I understand that according to the industry standard HTTP rules this is expected behaviour, but there are plenty of websites that "ignore" a trailing Forward Slash (at least as far as the user is concerned), and this 404 behaviour could confuse some less knowledgeable users.
