Nuno, "Yes, I do. It's a default setting." Never hurts to check--just because it's default, doesn't mean you haven't unset it :-)
I just ran a very simple test, using a project that I use for testing Django apps--which I had never used flatpages in. I added the FlatpageMiddleware, added flatpages to INSTALLED_APPS, synced the database, then created a page with a URL of just /, and created a default template. It worked fine--I can go to localhost:8000/ and get correct page--and I can also go to localhost:8000 and get redirected to the first URL. Perhaps you have something in your urls.py that's overriding what flatpages should be handling? -Jeff On Dec 10, 5:33 am, Nuno Machado <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Jeff, > > Yes, I do.
