You’re on the right track here, Bryan. If you’ll want your users to create pages with more than one segment in the URI, don’t use

{if segment_2!=""} {redirect="404"} {/if}

in your template. I would just stick with it as it is in the first code sample of your latest post. I don’t foresee any issues with it, but if any edge cases arise, then I would simply deal with them directly when they come up. No need to overcomplicate things from the beginning.

Is there anything else I can do to help?

Thanks Kevin.  I have it setup that way and it is working well.  The only other thing I am wondering is what standard EE folders should be excluded in a robots.txt file so they are not indexed?

Hi Bryan,

The only other thing I am wondering is what standard EE folders should be excluded in a robots.txt file so they are not indexed?

Normally I just add the system and themes folders to my robots.txt Does that help?
