    I have a default template group called “main”.
    I activated “make index temlate the homepage”
    I used to be able to access the other templates in the group like this(I removed index.php):
    http://mydomain.com/template1
    http://mydomain.com/template2
    ...
    Now all of a sudden I have to add the template group:
    http://mydomain.com/main/template1
    http://mydomain.com/main/template2
    ...
    Otherwise I get 404s

    I dont remember having changed anything.
    Any ideas?

    Did you turn on strict URL’s?

    EE likes having the template group name in the URL.

    Hi Boyink,
    thnx for the reply.
    That was it.
    I thought I was going nuts.
    I read upon strict urls
    http://ellislab.com/blog/entry/better_404s_with_strict_urls
    and will probably keep them on for SEO reasons, as described in the article.
    I have to go and read some more of your cool tuts now.
    Best
