I have a WordPress blog hosted in my IIS virtual directory that has all URLs ending with a forward slash. For example:
http://www.example.com/blog/
I have the following rules defined in my web.config:
<rule name="wordpress" patternSyntax="Wildcard">
<match url="*" />
<conditions>
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" negate="true" />
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" negate="true" />
</conditions>
<action type="Rewrite" url="index.php" />
</rule>
<rule name="Redirect-domain-to-www" patternSyntax="Wildcard" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="*" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="example.com" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="http://www.example.com/blog/{R:0}" />
</rule>
In addition, I tried adding the following rule for removing
trailing slashes:
<rule name="Remove
trailing slash" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)/$" />
<conditions>
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" negate="true" />
<add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" negate="true" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" redirectType="Permanent" url="{R:1}" />
</rule>
It seems that the last rule doesn't work at all. Anyone around here who has attempted to remove
trailing slashes from WordPress blogs hosted on IIS?
