How to remove /home?

#1

By default in Grav, home page has two URLs:
domain.com
domain.com/home
In this situation, there is duplicate content (Google considers this to be a huge problem).

How can you delete /home?

Hi
I don’t know why the /home redirect in the “site” section of the admin plugin never works but I’ve done my own redirect with a simple line in the htaccess file:

RewriteEngine On
RedirectMatch 301 /home/? /

I think You nedd in configuration setings enable - Hide home route in URLs

@NataliaB, Have you tested it? The settings does not have any impact on OPs urls.

In sytem.yaml, the setting hide_in_urls: false|true will only have effect on the Urls of the children of the home page.

Eg, when having the following folders:

user/pages
├── 01.home
│   ├── 01.child
│   │   └── default.md
│   └── default.md
├── 02.typography
│   └── default.md
└── images

When using hide_in_urls: false, the url of the child page will be https://mydomain/home/child

When using hide_in_urls: true, the url of the child page will be https://mydomain/child

See code in function Page.php::route() lines 1925-1935
