SiteFinity URL Rewriting Regular Expression

I'm struggling with a URL Rewriting rule for SiteFinity. I am trying to make sure that you can only access the homepage via / and not /default.aspx.

I tried the following rule:

<rule mode="PermanentRedirect">
    <url>/default.aspx</url>
    <rewrite>/</rewrite>
</rule>

Which actually works perfectly on the homepage - however it also catches /sitefinity/default.aspx and redirects off the homepage - not very helpful for content editors!

I essentially need a rule that will match when there is nothing prior to the string /default.aspx.

This should work:

<url>^/default\.aspx</url>

^ in most regular expression flavors means "start of the string", so it wouldn't match if the pattern is found in the middle. In addition, since <url> should be a regular expression, remember to escape the dot - a dot means "anything _{^{(except newlines)}}", so your pattern matches also /defaultXaspx.

I'm a little unsure of how things are looking from your machine's perspective.

I'm thinking that you would want to do a 'search and replace' like this.

strreplace "/default.aspx" with "/"

and then don't do anything with the other cases.
