Ridding Two Spaces
Posted November 23rd, 2005 @ 01:55pm by Erik J. Barzeski
I think a previous version of MovableType liked creating double underscores "__" in URLs, typically when titles were of the "word + another" variety (two spaces separated by something that was stripped during "dirification"). I've gone through and re-created all the posts that had "__" in them to remove those double underscores.
These double underscores were most likely caused when I upgraded to MovableType 3.2 and had to set all of the basenames to be the same as the dirified words were previously. I think I've caught most of my own TrackBacks and links. I became aware of some problems after my 404 script was showing a good amount of traffic on URLs with "__" in them.
The full list for my own use…
