Google search links was created by ddecker
We just launched our new site and we noticed google is feeding old urls that will not work on the new site we just launched. For example. Google gives links listed below from a keyword search.

higherone.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=2838%20&Itemid

When I add this url string into ReDJ to point to a new url or area of the site, I get an default error page not even the new error page we made for the new joomla site. How can we get the google search results links to work in ReDJ?

Thank you,
Dave

Hi Dave,

Yes,
this is the rule I needed. From what I can see it seems you have the FULL URL in the From field (i.e. it includes the domain part) but the check Request only is true, so this will never work.

You can drop the domain part from the source, or uncheck the request only checkbox. Also, consider to escape any special char (only in the From URL field), it is a regular expression so replace . with \. and ? with \? as example.

If you still have problem, paste the rule here (from the screenshot I cannot see all details).

Kind regards,
Luigi

here's the URL google is giving us

www.higherone.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=76:faqs&catid=7&Itemid=40

We want this url to go to a different website example: www.myonemoney.com

I have updated the screen so you can see the full rule.

Thank you,
Dave

From URL: ^/index\.php\?option=com_content&view=article&id=76:faqs&catid=7&Itemid=40$
To URL: http://www.myonemoney.com/
Request only: true (checked)
