Redirect - CCC Content Type
ID: 325
Name: Redirect - CCC
Description: This Content Type will create a redirect from a URL to another section/content item on the site.
How to Use:
- This content should only be created in the Home -> 404 section, otherwise it will be ignored.
- Provide the short/original URL that you want to redirect from.
- If you want all URLs starting with the specified short/original URL to follow the same redirect rule, check the "Append wildcard to short/original URL" option.
- Choose the section or content link that you want the short/original URL to redirect to.
- If the short/original URL contains a wildcard, checking the "Append wildcard character to target section" option will consider its pattern and append it to the target URL for redirection.
- Choose between a permanent redirect (Error 301) or a temporary redirect (Error 302) for the redirection process.
