Hi Doug,

Or maybe use the 301 Url tracker package for this.

Hope this helps,

Thanks, my friends!

I only have a few links to go to external domains, so will do it in the web.config with IIS's url rewriter rather than install another package into the site.

@Richard - may I recommend this as a future feature? If there's an http:// or https:// (or even ftp:// ?) at the start of the redirect url then it would be an external/remote redirect.

cheers,
doug.

For the benefit of anyone else, here's how I resolved this issue with IIS's url rewrite capability in the site's web.config file:

<rule name="Redirect to Flickr" stopProcessing="true">
    <match url="^(cgi-bin/thumbs\.asp)$" />
    <conditions>
        <add input="{QUERY_STRING}" pattern="d=/Photography/umbraco%20usa" />
    </conditions>
    <action type="Redirect" appendQueryString="false" url="https://www.flickr.com/photos/percipientstudios/sets/72157626450674491" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>

Thanks for sharing Doug,

It is on the todo list to add this functionality in a next release.

Cheers,

Richard

@Richard did you ever get round to implementing redirects to external URLs - can't see this functionality in the latest version ?

Hi Bradley,

This is still on the list and will be added in V2 to be released next couple of months.

Cheers,

Richard

Thanks Richard!
