Hard coded index page name

As we transition to the new Hyland Community, some post links may be temporarily disrupted as we finalize redirects. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. Details.

Just saw that the name for the index pages is hard coded in the WQS client api. That should be changed.

/**
 * @see org.alfresco.wcm.client.Section#getIndexPage()
 */
@Override
public Asset getIndexPage()
{
    return getAsset("index.html");
}
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

So any custom setting for the index page name in alfresco-global.properties (see below for example) will work when creating content in share but not when accessing an index page in the WQS web app.

### WCM QS Configuration Properties ### 
wcmqs.indexpage=index.shtml

Also in the WQS web app you have this in the GenericTemplateAssetController.java class:

// Redirect /some-url/index.html to /some-url/ to avoid duplicate URLs being flagged by search engines.
// Also Spring Surf resolves index.html requests so DynamicPageViewResolver doesn't get to process them.
if (path.endsWith("/index.html"))         
{
    int lastDelim = path.lastIndexOf('/');
    String uri = context + path.substring(0,lastDelim+1);
    RedirectView redirect = new RedirectView(uri,false,false);
    redirect.setStatusCode(HttpStatus.MOVED_PERMANENTLY);
    return new ModelAndView(redirect);         
}
