Redirects

Creating a new redirect

To begin navigate to the Redirects item under Page in the sidebar on the left.

To create a redirect, simply click on the + New button in the top right.

Options

Here are the options you can set on a redirect:

• Creating a new redirect
• Options
  • From
  • To
  • Type

From

The path where the redirect is coming from. When a visitor goes to this path, they will be redirected to the path specified in the To field. This path can use path parameters, such as :slug to be dynamic.

To

This is the path the redirect will route visitors to. If you have defined a path with parameters in the From field, you can use the value of those parameters here by doing this:

{{slug}}

Where slug is the name of the parameter defined in the From field.

Type

This can either be Permanent or Temporary.

• Permanent (HTTP 308) - The browser and search engines cache this redirect permanently. Use this only when a URL has moved for good and you are certain it will never move again. Permanent redirects can't be edited after creation.
• Temporary (HTTP 307) - The redirect is not cached, so it can be freely changed later. We recommend starting with Temporary for flexibility and only switching to Permanent once you are certain the target URL is final.
