| Description | A lot of websites do away with the .htm/.html/.php file extensions, and it would be great for Composr to do the same, or at least give the administrators a choice on the matter.
Nobody wants to have to type extra characters, and file extensions can confuse users who don't have a background in technology (this is why file extensions aren't displayed by default in operating systems anymore). I suggest either: 1) Composr does away with file extensions completely, or 2) Composr gives Administrators an easy way to change this option from the Admin Zone. |

No naming a welcome zone page something like 'uploads' or 'themes' (would conflict with uploads directory).
No naming a welcome zone page the same as an existing zone.
No naming a zone the same as an existing welcome zone page.
The .htaccess would be programmed to only use the new rules if no file/directory already exists (this is possible in .htaccess).
