This feature is particularly useful during site restructures or platform migrations — for example, when changing category URL structures. Properly configured redirects ensure that SEO performance is maintained and that existing customer links continue to work seamlessly.
You can find the Redirect Manager under Tools → Redirect Manager in the admin panel. New redirects can be easily added using the Create Redirect button by entering the old path (url_old) and the new path (url_new).
For bulk updates, you can export existing redirects to CSV, edit the file locally, and import the changes back using the Import function. The import process overwrites existing redirects but does not delete them — unnecessary redirects can be managed directly through the UI.
The platform will continue to automatically generate redirects for product and category URL changes. However, content page redirects must be set manually. Cross-domain redirects (e.g., domain1.com → domain2.com) are not supported, and we recommend using a consistent path format (e.g., all starting with a leading slash) to simplify management and prevent errors.
Pro tip: Always perform spot checks in your browser after importing to ensure redirects are functioning as expected. Example:
url_old | url_new |
---|---|
/category/mens-jeans | /category/mens-jeans-2 |
/product/4-way-shorts | /product/4-way-stretch-shorts |
With Redirect Manager, you can ensure a smooth user experience and maintain SEO integrity even during major site updates.
