Redirects

Redirects allows us to direct certain URLs to a targeted URL.

Types of redirects that can be created

Redirects can be used for search engine optimization.
Redirects can be used to direct users from old pages to the new ones.
Website relaunch can incorporate redirects in order to direct users to the new website.

Source: relative URL to be redirected (1)
Code: Type of redirect (2)
Priority: If more than one redirect rule could match a given source URL then the redirects with the highest priority is used
Target: relative URL to be redirected to (4)

You can use wildcards in order to create rules that can group or match multiple source URLs.

Example:

/old/* -> /new/

In this case, all URLs starting with /old/ will be redirected to /new/.

Additionally, you can also use the matched values in the source URL to build the target URL.

For instance, the rule:

/old/*/foo/* -> /new/$1/bar/$2

would result in the following redirect behaviour:

/old/my-fancy-product/foo/details -> /new/my-fancy-product/bar/details

You can use the placeholders in the target URL in arbitrary order. Thus, the above redirect rule could be changed to:

/old/*/foo/* -> /new/$2/bar/$1

which would result in the following redirect behaviour:

/old/my-fancy-product/foo/details -> /new/details/bar/my-fancy-product

You can create redirects as bulk with an csv-file, more explanation can be found here: https://docs.makaira.io/reference/post-bulk-redirect
