WordPress and permalink make your url case sensitive

Posted on One min read

This morning I browse some stats that google made on my blog, and saw that there are some 404 (Not Found) page. After some inspection I see that all the 404 have the form

http://www.nablasoft.com/Alkampfer/xxx

They have capital A for Alkampfer, if I changed the Alkampfer in alkampfer everything work……the strange thing is that I perfectly remember that it does work when I first setup the blog. After some inspection I found that the problem is due to the permalink, when you activate permalink in wordpress the url became case sensitive.

A solution can be found here.

Now link like these http://www.nablasoft.com/Alkampfer/?p=105 or http://www.nablasoft.com/AlkaMPFer/?p=105 works perfectly. It seems to me that it real better to have an url not case sensitive.
