Yesterday I developed a new page and first thing I did was set the extension to php in advanced under General but it still published it in html - index.html
This is the first I seen it happened. Any idea why it ignoring my setting and publishing it in html? I am using Joe Foundation template and stacks
Nothing I know of would cause an extension to change back to HTML from PHP. Any stack that requires PHP would change the extension from HTML to PHP.
You should get a warning message when you publish about duplicate index files.
I am not sure if it punish anything but It could use a good spanking for not behaving as intended when publishing. However it still publishing in html when I remove it.
I remove it and publish it. This time I got a warning of multiple index file but it did not publish either html or php. It didn’t publish a index file at all.
I am going to try force re-publish next. My RW isn’t being nice to me this morning!!
If you created the page before settings the General setting (this is for future new pages) it will still be HTML. You need to change pages that were created before setting the default manually in the page inspector.
Sigh … I was looking at my mirror backup directory of my website not my actual website directory. The index.php is now created and there. Thank you all!
