A question about remap / redirect to external servers


#1

Matrix Version:5.3.4.0

How do you get around this?

www.helloworld.com/test (asset id 100) has its webpath changed to www.helloworld.com/test-old so that we can create a remap from www.helloworld.com/test to it’s completely new url on a completely different server www.hithere.com/test.

We have several pages on our site that linked to www.helloworld.com/test via the asset id number #100 (not by the url). How do you get those pages to automatically update (somehow) to the new address (www.hithere.com/test)?

I have a bad feeling the answer will be you need to go to all those pages and manually update the links to use the url rather than the asset id. :confused:

Hey, have a look at the discussion in Redirecting an archived asset
Very similar and I just posted a suggested solution in there.
