New redirecting

Post by yetti »

Hi,
I'm using JoomFish 2.0.2, Phocagallery 1.8.8 and Joomla! 1.5.9 with SEF.

I need to redirect old links to avoid duplicate pages on my website and to redirect links pointing to the old version to the new address created by JoomFish.

I need to redirect this:

Code: Select all

http://www.xyz.com/index.php/category-name
to:

Code: Select all

http://www.xyz.com/index.php/en/category-name
Without influencing other translations (

Code: Select all

http://www.xyz.com/index.php/ru/category-name, http://www.xyz.com/index.php/sk/category-name
etc.).

It would be also great to have redirected pages like:

Code: Select all

http://www.xyz.com/index.php/category-name?start=40
to

Code: Select all

http://www.xyz.com/index.php/en/category-name?start=40
Some guy at Joomla! forum suggested that it could be possible via PhocaGallery's SEF. Is it possible?

Thanks,
yetti

Hi, Phoca SEF stores the obsolete sites (and count of access to these sites) and you can set new site for some specific obsolete site, so then it will be redirect to new site..

so if you want to redirect this link:
http://www.xyz.com/index.php/category-name
then it will not redirect any other link (only link which you set)

Just install the Phoca SEF, wait until users will go to some obsolete links and then set some link to be redirect to new site

Thanks.

I'm sorry, I have obviously posted it in the wrong forum. I thought it is Phoca Gallery SEF section and now I see, it is some new component :-).

Anyways Phoca SEF is not the right solution as it redirects only obsolete 404 links and that is not my case.

But you are right I'm looking for what you have suggested. Just for live links too.

Thanks
