Page Naming
Now that “friendly” URLs are displayed, there is no need to keep your page Name and Display name strictly in sync, as we used to advise site developers. For example, you could create a page called ‘working’, but set the Display Name to ‘Working @ Imperial’.
REMEMBER THAT THIS HAS TO BE A TWO-STEP PROCESS. When you first create a page you MUST set the field called ‘Display Name’ to ALL LOWER-CASE OR NUMBERS, NO SPACES OR SPECIAL CHARACTERS (“working” in the example above). THEN go into Edit/ Page Properties and change the Display Name to the required name including capital letters, spaces and other punctuation, leaving the page Name in all lowercase.
