Suggestion: Allow Pages With Same Title
Nov 4 2009, 12:21 PM EST | Post edited: Nov 4 2009, 12:21 PM EST
Hi. I was hoping Wetpaint could consider changing their sites to allow pages to have the same name, but only when in a different category of the navigation. For example, Home is the main category. For Wetpaint Central, the Help page would look like http://www.wetpaintcentral.com/page/Help. However, "About Wetpaint Sites" would look like this... http://www.wetpaintcentral.com/page/Help/About+Wetpaint+Sites. And then the page "What is a Wetpaint Site" would look like this...

http://www.wetpaintcentral.com/page/Help/About+Wetpaint+Sites/What+is+a+Wetpaint+Site

I believe this would benefit many content writers in various ways. I'm sure there are other more important features being worked on like customizing styles and what not, but please feel free to post your opinion and add any thoughts on this subject... maybe even expand the idea to something better. Thanks. Do you find this valuable?

This has been requested before. Hopefully Wetpaint will feature this in one of their future releases! Do you find this valuable?

A couple of downsides of doing this are:
1) Having more than one page with the same name can get really confusing; and
2) Pages 3 or more levels down would have awkwardly long URLs Do you find this valuable?

Although Wetpaint does not allow for pages with the same name, Splats2 can show you an easy way to accomplish what you want to do. Splats2 will show you a main page and two sub pages with the same name. There are three sub pages all with the name "Help" and each with different content on the page.
