I would like to be able to automatically redirect from a page to another page within the website (or to an external web page).
I know I could add an extra field to the document type and amend the template to do a redirect if the field had content but is there a neater way such as a package that would do this?
You could add the umbracoRedirect property alias to your documents type(s). This is a standard Umbraco property and allows editors to redirect pages. You wouldn't need to add any logic to your templates for the redirect to work. See http://our.umbraco.org/wiki/reference/umbraco-best-practices/umbracoredirect for more details.
That's good. I guess there's two issues really, there's the redirect and also having one page "appear" in two places in the heirachy which I was going to use that for but is there a way to have the page in two places?
