Redirection links that redirect to my homepage

    Hello,

    on two sites where I installed Rankmath, I use the redirect feature to send my readers to links external to my site while customizing my links.

    The problem is that I noticed that some links were redirecting to my home page instead of the right link. For example, one of my redirect links was working well and since a few days it redirects to my home page.

    Thank you for your help.

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    I was able to check your site. The issue you are facing is because you have a media file named NordVPN whose URL is the UR you are redirecting: https://d***b.com/NordVPN. Since you have enabled the option to redirect attachments in Rank math > General Settings > Links and the file doesn’t seem to be attached t any post, the URL is automatically redirected as an orphan attachment to home page.

    To resolve this, you will have to upload the media file named Nordvpn with a different name so as to have a different URL or disable the option to redirect attachments.
