    301 Redirect content picker property?

    Hello

    I'm looking for a 301 redirect property, where I can use the content picker to choose a page, I want to redirect to with the status code 301.

    I can't find a package that solves the problem, and I can't find any built-in features within Umbraco either.

    I found this "hack" but it isn't the prettiest solution: http://our.umbraco.org/forum/using/ui-questions/55511-redirect-virtual-page-to-external-url

    Is there another way to do it, which already exists?

    Hi Benjamin,

    Maybe the 301 URL Tracker package you be a option / solution for you. Try to have a look here; http://our.umbraco.org/projects/developer-tools/301-url-tracker

    Hope this helps,

    /Dennis

    Hi Dennis

    Thank you for your quick reply!

    I have already installed the 301 Url Tracker-package, but it's not the solution I'm looking for.

    This package does exactly what I want, but it's not working on Umbraco 7: http://our.umbraco.org/projects/backoffice-extensions/permanent-redirect

    Hi Benjamin,

    I have just tried install the permanent redirect package http://our.umbraco.org/projects/backoffice-extensions/permanent-redirect and it creates a 301 redirect. I just added a property to my documentype of the content picker datatype, and gives it the alias umbracoPermanentRedirect.

    After this I add this line to the webconfig file.

    <add name="terabytePermanentRedirect" type="Terabyte.Umbraco.Modules.PermanentRedirect.Redirect" />

    In the system.webServer modules part.

    <system.webServer>
        <validation validateIntegratedModeConfiguration="false" />
        <modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true">
          <remove name="WebDAVModule" />
          <remove name="UrlRewriteModule" />
          <add name="UrlRewriteModule" type="UrlRewritingNet.Web.UrlRewriteModule, UrlRewritingNet.UrlRewriter" />
          <add name="terabytePermanentRedirect" type="Terabyte.Umbraco.Modules.PermanentRedirect.Redirect" />
          <remove name="UmbracoModule" />
          <add name="UmbracoModule" type="Umbraco.Web.UmbracoModule,umbraco" />
          <remove name="ScriptModule" />
          <add name="ScriptModule" preCondition="managedHandler" type="System.Web.Handlers.ScriptModule, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" />
          <remove name="ClientDependencyModule" />
          <add name="ClientDependencyModule" type="ClientDependency.Core.Module.ClientDependencyModule, ClientDependency.Core" />
          <!-- Needed for login/membership to work on homepage (as per http://stackoverflow.com/questions/218057/httpcontext-current-session-is-null-when-routing-requests) -->
          <remove name="FormsAuthentication" />
          <add name="FormsAuthentication" type="System.Web.Security.FormsAuthenticationModule" />
          <add name="ImageProcessorModule" type="ImageProcessor.Web.HttpModules.ImageProcessingModule, ImageProcessor.Web" />
        </modules>
    </system.webServer>

    Hope this helps,

    /Dennis

    Cool Dennis!

    Thank you for testing it on a Umbraco 7. I actually didn't try since it was marked as working on only Umbraco 4.

    So I in some cases I can't take that marking for good. That's both good and a little annoying to know :-)

    Maybe there should be some sort of "voting", so people can mark an Umbraco version as working or not.

    Again, thank you very much!

    Actually it's not version dependant but it requires .NET 4 and full trust for it to work :) - The stuff on the right is based on the reports people make. So anyone trying the package can actually add a vote for the version they test it on.

    Yup :) I just took the liberty of reporting it compatible with version 7.0 and 7.1 at least. Hopefully that will lead to less confusion for others in the future.

    And maybe more people will use it now, instead of creating their own dirty hacks :-)

    A little off-topic to this post, but do you know how to enable nested archetypes? I can't select Archetype DataTypes inside another Archetype.

    Update: Update the web.config and it will work :-)
