With the Redirects module you can create short referral URLs that link to a long one. This allows you to communicate an URL that is easy to type, while the content is on a longer URL.
Creating a Referral URL
To create a Referral Go To Website > Redirects > Add, where you can enter an alias and a target.
- Type = Select whether the Redirect should be a Short URL or a Permanently Moved
- Source* (required) = The short URL you can communicate will be the address of the website followed by this alias. In the example above it is "podcast".
Take note!
Do not use an source that already appears in the main menu of the website. For example, www.website.com/program is often already a main menu item.
- Target* (required) = The target is the purpose of the referral. This is the long URL, following the domain, for example: ”nieuws/728/Nieuwe_podcastserie/”.
Take note!
The Redirects module will strip out any trailing / for better redirecting
