    Ok i’m not sure where the problem could come from
    I have imported entries from an xml file (through DataGrab)

    i’m basing my url on a certain typefield (plain text) from the xml file
    These fields contain caps and underscores like C32_A786 or B01_COVENTRY

    /B01_COVENTRY works
    /C32_A786 doesn’t work.

    The thing is, all entry fields i see are filled the url is correct in expressionengine.
    But whatever i like to display with exp:channel just doesn’t return any value at all.

    {exp:channel:entries channel="channel_name" dynamic="no"}

    If i look at the page source of C32_A786 it only shows me the html anything between exp:channel:entries is empty /C32_A786 everything works normal.

    I tried to manually adjust the url of /C32_A786
    If i adjust the caps to lowercases it works..
    but that doesn’t make sense because other page url’s are also caps and they do show in my page.

    HELP please!

    Hi Visual,

    I’m glad you found a solution! The reason those titles were causing trouble is because in ExpressionEngine, by default, “C” in the URL triggers category mode. You can change this in Admin > Channel Administration > Global Preferences: Use Category URL Titles In Links?

    Is there anything else I can assist you with?

    Cheers,
