Problem with redirections

#954602

    Hello,

    On my website https://www.kaperli.com/, I have set redirections using Rank Math. For example, I want the old page https://www.kaperli.com/blog/ to redirect to https://www.kaperli.com/actualites/.
    Instead of going to /actualites/, the redirection goes to the home page.

    In fact, all redirections set as ‘start with’ redirect to the home page.

    I have followed the troubleshooting steps in your knowledge base and activated the redirections debugger, but it’s still not working.

    Could you please help me for this case ?

    Thank you
    Melanie

  • Hello,

    We apologize for the issue you are facing with the redirections on your website. It sounds frustrating that the redirections are not functioning as expected.

    Since you’ve already activated the redirections debugger, we recommend checking the following:

    1. Ensure the Redirection Rules are Correct: Double-check that the redirection rules you have set up are correctly configured. Make sure there are no conflicting rules that might be causing the redirection to default to the home page.
    2. Debugging Information: When you use the debugger, look for the "Manage This Redirection" link in the interstitial that appears before the redirect happens. This will take you to the exact redirect rule that is causing the issue, allowing you to diagnose and fix it.

    3. Check for Other Plugins: Sometimes, other plugins can interfere with redirection rules. Temporarily disable other plugins to see if that resolves the issue.
    4. Clear Cache: If you are using a caching plugin, clear your cache after making changes to your redirection settings.

    If you’ve gone through these steps and the issue persists, please reply to this ticket with any additional details or screenshots of your redirection settings, and a human agent from our support team will take over and assist you further.

    Thank you for raising this concern, and we look forward to helping you resolve it!

    Hello,

    I have followed the steps and the problem persists.

    Hello,

    We checked your website and found that you were using the domain name in Source URL which Rank Math doesn’t support. We updated the redirection and now it is working properly without any issues:

    However, if you want to redirect all the URLs from /blog/post-name to /actualites/post-name then you’ll have to use the following regex redirection on your website:

    Source: blog/(.*)
    Match: regex
    Destination: https://www.kaperli.com/actualites/$1
    

    Here’s how you can set a regex redirection on your website: https://rankmath.com/kb/how-to-use-regex-redirects/

    Hope that helps and please don’t hesitate to let us know if you have any other questions.
     
    Thank you.

    one last question, can I set a redirection to another domain ?
    For example, I want all strings starting by
    https://www.kaperli.com/categorie-produit/…

    to redirect to https://shop.kaperli.com/

    Could you please tell me how to set that ? Should I use regex too ?

    Hello,

    Apologies for the delay as this ticket seems to have been stuck in our drafts section for some reason.

    Yes, you can set the destination URL to any domain.

    You should also use regex for that with this format:

    Source: categorie-produit/(.*)
    Type: Regex
    Destination: https://shop.kaperli.com/

    Hope that helps.
