Description: I just noticed that I have one group in my wiki containing one page that is named the same as the group.

Calling GroupName without specifying a page name (for example by clicking on the group name in the top menu) defaults to the page that is named like the group instead of the homepage.

Maybe that is not a bug but a desired and documented feature, but I wasn't aware of it, and got quite a bit confused as a result :-) Henning November 08, 2004, at 07:25 AM


It's a feature, or at least it's in there that way by design. Let me know if you need the configuration steps to convert it to favor HomePage over the GroupName. --Pm


Thanks, changing the configuration doesn't seem necessary now that I know what to expect. Henning


In a non-english Wiki, a group HomePage may not be named 'HomePage' (this is the variable $DefaultName), so searching the Group name before searching $DefaultName is a desirable feature if you wish to have the Wiki documentation not broken. PRZ
