Redirection DOES NOT WORK

Hi. I have tried all the options of redirecting. EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM……..

Here’s my problem (s)
1. Some pages that I have redirected will redirect to the fallback option instead of the specific one. Why? The old url’s are all exactly right.

2. For the pages that DO redirect it is only when they have the https:// in front of the (old) URL
If the old URL is just: example.org/pageofwebsite then the redirect does not even work. Also the fallback does not work.

There is no way for me to add the whole url to the source url. The redirect manager cuts it off after I have typed it in. Also ‘contains’ or ‘end with’ or ‘start with’ does not work.

Who knows what’s happening here or what I am doing wrong?

Ps. there is nothing I can do about the https:// or none being in the links as they are links that afe in google’s index.

kind regards, Colin
