Reserved URLs

What are Reserved URLs?
When you make a new page or application in your website, you have the freedom with Evo Cloud to structure your URLs any way that you want.
For example, you could make a page or application in your website that has a URL structured like this: https://www.ourcompany.com/about/history/2015/ .
Note that this URL appears to have directories in its structure, even though there are no such file directories in the website. This URL design freedom makes it possible to group content and create sub-menus that are tied to specific URLs structures in your website. This flexibility is great, and you can make your URLs anything you want, but the one limitation is that certain applications and functionality within the platform requires URLs that can't be used by content that you create.

Below is a list of those "reserved URLs" that you can't use for naming your pages, applications, or other content areas in your website.
Our system will show an error message if you try to use one of these URLs, so you don't need to memorize this list.
However, we have had customers ask us what the URLs are, so that they also could be aware of some of the special applications URLs that are available in the system.

Public Reserved URLs

These are URLs are reserved for the public side of your website. For example, if you went to www.yourdomain.com/maps/ , you would see a master Google map for your organization, which shows all of the map layers on it. This is a reserved URL for the Master Map that is generated by the CMS.
