Hi,

The old site I am migrating to Radiant used mixed case URLs, and  
Radiant is case sensitive.

I’d prefere to have all lowercase URLs (as per default slugs)

Is there a way to set Radiant case insensitive?

No. It should be pretty easy to create a plugin to do this though. You  
would need to do the following:

- add a validations on Page#slug so that it had to be a unique  
non-case-sensitive URL

- modify the find method on Page so that it is case insensitive

I think that’s it.
