Parent page content instead of HTTP 404?

Hi there,

I have created a page in Sitefinity with URL /test and with some content.
When I browse this page from http://localhost:60876/test I can see my text. It's OK.

When I try to browse non existing child page, for instance, localhost:60876/.../sub-test then it shows me the content of parent page. However, I expect to see HTTP 404 error.

I'd like to ask two questions:
1. Is it a bug or a new feature of Sitefinity 4?
2. In case of new feature, is there a way to obtain programmatically the values after parent page?
For example, on the parent page we have some widget and we have URL like this localhost:60876/.../sub-test2. Of course, the child pages with URLs sub-test and sub-test2 do not exist, therefore the parent page should be loaded. In widget's code I would like to get values:

var firstParam = someObject.Items[0]; //holds sub-test
var secondParam = someObject.Items[1]; //holds sub-test2

Is it possible?

Thanks in advance,
Anton.

Hi Anton,

I added your issue to the bug.

Hello Doug,

I checked with latest official release (4.4 from 2012 Jan 22) and saw the following behavior:

 

Is there a new PITS number? I searched for 404, but didn't see anything recent and the old PITS item is still resolved.

Hi Eric,

Thank you for contacting Telerik support. It was my fault, thanks to you I changed the visibility of the PITS issue to public, its number is 9506.
