Question

Remove the .html from URL - App Platform

Hey everyone,

Is there any way I could remove the .html from my static website URLs using the DigitalOcean App Platform?

I tried using a .htaccess file but it seems this didn’t work.

For example:

https://example.com/about.html

becomes

https://example.com/about

Thanks!

Hi @captainabofficial,

Currently, App Platform doesn’t handle this type of routing. We have a similar discussion in our another community link below which might help:
