Manage redirects

Section titled “Manage redirects”
  • The Enabled switch turns a redirect off or on. A redirect that is off is ignored, so its path shows the normal “page not found” (404) page.
  • Search finds a redirect by its path or target.
  • The edit button changes a redirect; the delete button asks you to confirm first.
