Everything is working really well, apart from posting in the image namespace. Upon submitting a thread, I am redirected to a nginx 404 page. When I try and view a thread in the image namespace, it has a URL like

http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/for...ating+Plan+png

Clicking on this results in nginx returning a 404, likely as the URL ends in "png". I have set the "Remove the Dot from Image Extensions in URLs?" option to Yes.

When I rename the thread to somethjing not ending in png, it does show the image. Thanks for any assistance you can provide with this setup.

In your nginx sites-enabled, find:

Code:

location ~* ^.+.(jpg|jpeg|gif|png

Replace with:

Code:

location ~* ^.+\.(jpg|jpeg|gif|png

In regular expressions a dot (.) and a slash-dot (\.) mean two different things (match any character vs. match a period).

Awesome pegasus, I really appreciate this support and you're absolutely correct. It's working great now.

Only thing, the images we'd already uploaded are not showing anymore now that I've enabled "Remove the Dot from Image Extensions in URLs?"

Edit: I just rebuilt the image namespace and it's fixed itself. I'm loving this wiki, looking to launch ours later today, we've already got 100 articles from the closed beta
