Plugin Redirect

Introduced in Tiki3

Use this wiki plugin to semi-permanently redirect any existing wiki page to any other specified wiki page or URL. If it's for wiki pages, a better alternative is the Page Alias

Parameters

Note:

• It does not check permissions of the destination page, so users may need to login after redirect.
• It can redirect to a wiki page or to any URL, which is why there is Plugin security
• There is no warning about "you will be redirected in 5 seconds message" or similar; it's instant!
• There is a check to stop possible loops
• URL redirects can be both: absolute starting with protocol like http:// or relative to the Tiki root

How to edit the redirect page?

Q:How do you go back to original page for editing...
A: Use /tiki-editpage.php?page=TheTargetPageWithTheRedirectPlugin

You can also go to the page history to view source, compare or unroll changes made that include the REDIRECT code. Use /tiki-pagehistory.php?page=TheTargetPageWithTheRedirectPlugin

Examples

The redirect plugin usage is:

{redirect page="pagename"}

or for URLs (tiki-something.php... or http://...)

{redirect url="url"}

or for perspectives:

{redirect perspective="Id"}
