I am in a serious bind, and I am not sure how to fix it.
I did a promotional postcard for an upcoming event at our University, and sent them out to the tune of 3,500 with the correct web address MINUS the ‘.html’!
Yes, make a new folder in Freeway called specific and place the page
in there, rename the file name index.html and upload. Now when people
type in http://www.yoursite.com/specific they will get sent to the
correct page now named index.html page.
Hope this helps.

If you want to do a belt and braces job follow Joe’s instructions, but then have a duplicate of it in that folder which is named specific.html as well as index.html
so regardless what people type specific or specific.html the page will show up.
Thank you so much for your help. I did NOT want to go to my boss and tell her that I sent out 3,500 cards with the wrong web address!
I am leaving specific.html where it is, because everything on the site refers to it. I added the specific folder with a duplicate named index.html, so that any postcard people will find it too.
If you made the site with Freeway, then creating a specific folder
within Freeway, moving the specific.html into the specific folder,
and updating its filename to index.html, will magically update every
other link within your site to remain correct. If you move the
specific.html into a folder, all of the links on that page will stop
working. Best to work with Freeway, let it do the magic it is
justly famous for.
