I've a site built with Umbraco 4.7.2 and I'm trying to find a plugin that allows the content editor to create redirects.
301 Url Tracker only seems to allow you to redirect from an existing page to a different one within the backend whilst what I'm really after is being able to redirect from a page that has never existed into an existing page.
e.g. www.test.com/NeverExisted to www.test.com/home
I can achieve this by editing the urlrewriting.config but that is outside of the client's scope / capability.
I also had a look at umbracoManageUrlRedirects and whilst it seemed the way to go I couldn't get it to work with the version of umbraco and the limited documentation said something about adding a property with "umbraco301MovedPermanently" but without stating what type of property this should be.
So, is there a plugin that will allow me to do this or is it best to roll my own and create a back-end plugin that modifies the urlrewriting.config file?

Ps.
One of the things required is to handle tracking information, so for example,
www.mySite.com/Nice to redirect to www.mySite.com/tracking/?utm_source=Times&utm_medium=Print&utm_campaign=Test
Thanks again.
