# Trailing / on URL causing problems

 * Hello,
 * I’m using a the wordpress url re-write to include just the post or page name 
   without a trailing slash. When I use a trailing slash, all of my images and links
   to external files do not work.
 * The site has been working except for one thing; I cannot get to my post listing
   page. I have a static page set as my homepage and domain.com/news as my post 
   page. WordPress seems to keep adding the trailing / to only that link. I don’t
   know why.
 * Is there any fix for this?
