I want to create a site where folders are the page root
Ex:
https://mysite.com (index/root for homepage)
https://mysite.com/products/ (index/root for products page)
https://mysite.com/products/product1
https://mysite.com/products/product2
https://mysite.com/products/product3
https://mysite.com/services/ (index/root for services landing page)
I think you get the gist here right? I am reading that this is not possible. Please advise.
Here is my site Read-Only: LINK

Hi Jennifer
I had the same problem. I think I found a fix that works but need to test it more. I basically created a page in the root the same name as my folder and this works.
So I have mysite.com/products (folder)
and I have
mysite.com/products (page)
Hope this helps.
Thanks
Jonathan
Hello Jonathan Lyon, Good answer but it doesn’t solve the problem. In fact your reply gave me a clue to fully resolve the question. Please find my answer below.
[SOLVED] Here is the step by step solution to this question.
Create a folder with your desired name. example.com/folder1
Create a page with the desired name under the previous folder . example.com/folder1/landing
Now open the Page Settings and assign the parent folder as folder1 .
Now the critical step is, Go to your Webflow Dashboard and select the project settings. Under hosting, you have to add a new 301 redirection from
example.com/folder1 → example.com/folder1/landing
Dont forget to publish the project and verify.
If that works for you, Please leave a comment and if it doesn’t work still leave a comment. I will reply back to you soon.
