Adding a redirect for a page
# help-with-umbraco
m
I want to create a new page but for now the page needs to redirect to an existing page (not my idea) - I have added the new page but cannot find a way to set "if I land on this page redirect elsewhere" from within umbraco, can this be done or must it be done programmatically?
h
probably better off just adding a redirect in the page template for this. Seems a very odd thing todo though 🤣
r
umbracoRedirect
and
umbracoInternalRedirectId
could be useful, or a package like Skybrud Redirects? https://docs.umbraco.com/umbraco-cms/reference/routing/routing-properties https://marketplace.umbraco.com/package/skybrud.umbraco.redirects

+1 for Skybrud redirects itsa well built and well worked out package If you are doing this in multiple places this could save time in the long run

If you rename the old page to the new page name and rename it back I think a redirect is automatically created for you. Then just name the new page something temporarily and change it to the real name to get rid of the redirect afterwards.

+1 did for this technique. And the old redirects can be deleted when no longer required.
