Plugin Redirect

Introduced in Tiki3

Use this wiki plugin to semi-permanently redirect any existing wiki page to any other specified wiki page or URL. If it's for wiki pages, a better alternative is the Page Alias

Parameters

Redirect to another page.
Introduced in Tiki 3.
Go to the source code
Preferences required: wikiplugin_redirect

page pagename Wiki page name to redirect to. 3.0

Note:

  • It does not check permissions of the destination page, so users may need to login after redirect.
  • It can redirect to a wiki page or to any URL, which is why there is Plugin security
  • There is no warning about "you will be redirected in 5 seconds message" or similar; it's instant!
  • There is a check to stop possible loops
  • URL redirects can be both: absolute starting with protocol like http:// or relative to the Tiki root

How to edit the redirect page?
