The process to create a redirect is fairly straightforward:
- Log into the TYPO3 backend.
- In the left column click on the Info module (icon blue circle with white "i" in the middle)
- Click on the Root of the website or the globe icon
- In the right-hand portion of the screen, look near the top of the screen, at the select list and choose "RealURL management"
- For the "show" select list, choose "Redirects"
- It would be good practice, to make sure and lookup the URL you want to redirect first. To make sure someone did not try this already and had a typo in the URL
- If the URL does not exist, click on the Icon for "Add new redirects". You will see a table of empty fields, where you can create new redirects.
- Place the source URL in the Source URL column
- shows/biblehelpdesk/find-an-answer/questions-about-prayer/
- No leading “/”
- Provide a trailing “/”
- Place the destination URL in the Destination column
- shows/biblehelpdesk/find-an-answer/questions-about-prayer-and-hearing-god/
- No leading “/”
- Provide a trailing “/”
- Set the domain
- Place a checkmark in the checkbox for Permanent
- Do the steps for all the redirects you have.
- Click on Save when all the redirects are entered.
- Test the redirects in the frontend
- You may need to clear the website cache, if it seems the redirect is not working correctly.
