    redirect an url of an old page before 301 URL Tracker was installed

    Hi,

    I just installed 301 URL Tracker for my website and it's seems like a great package for SEO. The problem I have currently is that I removed a page

    http://www.webmove.be/en/webdevelopment/

    to a new location:

    http://www.webmove.be/en/services/webdevelopment/

    I did this before I installed the 301 URL Tracker, so the old page was not stored by the 301 URL Tracker.

    So is there a way to create a 301 redirect for this old url via the 301 URL Tracker or should I make the redirect in an other way?

    Thanks for your help,

    Anthony Candaele

    Quote from the project's page: "Ability to create custom url mappings, e.g. when you get a new website, the urls can be changed. This way you can map old urls to new ones".

    So yes, it's possible. Just right-click on the 301 URL Tracker folder node under the Settings section and click "Create".
    Then you'll get a pop-up where you can select the node for which you'd like to create a URL mapping.

    At the right frame of umbraco you'll get the ability to enter the old url '/en/webdevelopment/' and after you hit the button 'Add mapping', it should work :-)

    Hi kipusoep (funny nickname, in Dutch this resembles something like 'chicken soup' :)

    Thanks for your help, had tried the above scenario, but apparently I entered the wrong url (www.webmove.be/en/webdevelopment). Now I have tried it with '/en/webdevelopment/' and it works !

    Have a nice weekend,

    Hmm, maybe that's because I am Dutch :P

    No problem, van hetzelfde ;-)
