Issue Summary

When page titles start with a dot (.) character, these pages cannot be navigated to using a link as it would result in a 404 error in the browser:

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a new blank Confluence page
2. Set the first character of the title as a dot character, for example ".test"
3. Add dummy content and publish the page
4. Copy the page's URL and paste it on a new tab or simply refresh the newly published page

Expected Results

The link should take the user to the page

Actual Results

The link goes to a 404 page and the only way to get to the page is by removing the title completely from the URL

Workaround

• Avoid using a dot character as the first character in a page's title
• Or remove the title part from the page's URL for example:

• • Instead of https://instance.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/KEY/pages/123123123/.test
  • Use https://instance.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/KEY/pages/123123123 instead
