Scenario 1 | Adding a URL redirect

senario 2 header settings

A redirect is only possible if the source page is deleted or archived (to distinguish it from live content). The URL alias must be removed afterward.

Click the Add redirect button. A form will appear. In the Path field, enter the source path (without the “/” at the beginning). In the To field, search for or enter the destination page.

Select the redirect type: 301 (permanent) or 302 (temporary). The most commonly used is 301.

Then, choose the appropriate language. If you choose "all languages" the redirection will be created for all translations of this page. 

Click Save to apply the redirect. This will automatically clear the URL alias field of the source page.
