IIS Rewrite in Umbraco 7.12.1

Using Umbraco And Getting Started

Umbraco 7
Hi,

I have just installed Umbraco 7.12.1 from scratch. I can see the old way with URLRewriting.config file has been deprecated. I have tried with IIS rewrite instead but not succeeded.

Example I have a URL https://mysite.com/contact I would like when user types that URL. It will become https://mysite.com/contact.html

I have tried this
```
<rewrite>
       <rules>         
         <rule name="Rewrite rule1 for RewriteHtml">
           <match url=".*" />
           <conditions>
             <add input="{RewriteHtml:{REQUEST_URI}}" pattern="(.+)" />
           </conditions>
           <action type="Rewrite" url="{C:1}" appendQueryString="false" />
         </rule>
       </rules>
       <rewriteMaps>
         <rewriteMap name="RewriteHtml">
           <add key="/contact.html" value="/contact" />
         </rewriteMap>
       </rewriteMaps> 
</rewrite>
```
How can I achieve this in new Umbraco? Thanks very much

Hi,

I think you may have your key and value the wrong way around:
```
<add key="/contact.html" value="/contact" />
```
Should be:
```
<add key="/contact" value="/contact.html" />
```
Hope that works for you!

Hi Ben,

That worked fine but both links can be accessible as well. How can we avoid this? So if user access to "/contact" then they should get a 404.

Hi,

When you say it's working, what's happening?

With the above rule /contact should take you to /contact.html every time. Unless you mean /contact/ (notice the trailing slash)?

Thanks,

Ben

Thanks for you reply Ben

it is working with these url: .../contact .../contact.html .../contact/ (no matter this works or not)

I would like ONLY ".../contact.html" work. the rest should return 404.

Can we do this in Umbraco? Thanks
