I have a page folder called “old-pages” that I am adding pages to that are not relevant anymore. I have a lot of pages and don’t want to have to deal with redirecting each one.
I believe this is pretty straightforward, but it does not seem to be working.
There might be your issue! If you use the wildcard (.*), you should convey the string after the * to the new location too!
Have a look at the guide on the uni:
To redirect an entire folder, add a capture group (.*) in the old URL structure in the “Old Path” Field (eg. /oldfolder/(.)), then add the target path %1 for new URL structure in the “Redirect to Page” field (/entirely/new-url/structure/%1).
You can add multiple capture groups to create more complex redirect rules. For example: **/blogs/(.)/(.*)** can be redirected to /articles/%1/%2
Maybe my understanding of redirects is off, but based on the fact these 2 pages /protocols and /network are in the old-pages folder, and the rule is set up like this:
Can you check your existing redirects? It seems you have multiple routes set, if there are any redirects for http://www.chronicled.com/old-pages/protocols specificalle, they will have higher priority.
Make sure there are no conflicting rules!
