Hi Matt,

try adding a return statement after the redirect.

if (links != null && links.Any())
{
    var prettyLink = links.FirstOrDefault();
    Response.RedirectPermanent(prettyLink.Url);
    return;
}

Thanks for the reply, Unfortnetly still no joy. doesn't redirect :(

I get the following

The name 'Response' does not exist in the current context

Hello Huw

Thanks for getting back to me, unfortunately I'm getting the following now.

HttpResponse' does not contain a definition for 'RedirectPermanent' and no accessible extension method 'RedirectPermanent' accepting a first argument of type 'HttpResponse' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Thanks

Sorry Huw still no joy, I thought it would be simple :(

Non-invocable member 'HttpContext.Response' cannot be used like a method.

Hi Huw,

So I have a doc type in my compositions page called "Redirect Page" inside that I have a url picker.

Attached to the doc type is a template currently with the following;

@using Umbraco.Cms.Web.Common.PublishedModels;
@inherits Umbraco.Cms.Web.Common.Views.UmbracoViewPage<ContentModels.RedirectPage>
@using ContentModels = Umbraco.Cms.Web.Common.PublishedModels;
@using Umbraco.Cms.Core.Models;
@using System;


@{
    Layout = "Master.cshtml";

        var links = Model.Value<IEnumerable<Link>>("linkTarget");
if (links != null && links.Any())
{
    var prettyLink = links.FirstOrDefault();
    Context.Response(prettyLink.Url,true);
    return;
}
}

Hi,

This code works fine but how can I get it to open in a new window?

@{
    Layout = "Master.cshtml";

        var links = Model.Value<IEnumerable<Link>>("linkTarget");
if (links != null && links.Any())
{
    var prettyLink = links.FirstOrDefault();
    Context.Response.Redirect(prettyLink.Url,true);

}
}

Thanks

is working on a reply...
