You may like to know that there is an undocumented parameter called separator.

For instance I have a project where I have a folder called "20/20 Insight".

This folder's basename is: /telecom/2020insight

The page archive template mapping is: folder-path/page-basename.html

In other words, the template mapping is to use "-" (dash) instead of "_" (underscore) on the file name.

However, the tag <$mt:FolderPath$> would display the folder basename AS IS, without getting also the characteristic from the page template mapping.

In order to solve this issue I'm using the undocumented parameter called "separator", like this:

<$mt:FolderPath separator="-"$>

Enjoy, Mihai
