Version: 3.5.4 Reporter: Chris Davies Web Design —
This is an archived bug report. If you are experiencing a similar issue, upgrade to the latest release and if that does not solve the problem, submit a new bug report
I am still expereincing the same bug that was reported back on 31st March 2016 (over a year ago!). https://expressionengine.com/support/bugs/21633/template-routes-with-static-segments-and-require-all-set-to-no-error
I am running EE 3.5.4 and when I save a template route like:
contact/{alpha_dash} with ‘segments required’ set to ‘no’, only if a segment 2 is present will the page display. If only segment 1 of ‘contact’ is present a blank page displays.
Applying the temporary fix displayed in the previous bug report does fix the issue, but I don’t understand why I am having to apply this to every project I work on when the bug has been known for over a year.
A response explaining why would be greatly appreciated.
