Hi,

What will be the best way to redirect a directory path of a url in DW9/DW10?
Like when you rename a folder/category and don't want to add a redirect for every single sub page?
Regex doesn't seem to work in the built in redirect tool, and I'm not sure if we can edit the .htaccess file somehow?

Thanks

Br Simen

Hi SImen,

On windows servers there is no .htacces file. Instead, you can add the redirect rules in IIS or in the web.config directly.

DW9 and DW10 comes with built in redirect features.

DW10: https://doc.dynamicweb.dev/manual/dynamicweb10/settings/system/webhttp/Redirects.html

DW9: https://doc.dynamicweb.com/documentation-9/platform/platform-tools/redirects

DW10 supports a bit of wildcarding - but not /page/sub-page/other-page to be a /page/sub-pager/* -> /page/new-subpage/$1

It would be a nice feature though

web.config looks to be the way to go! Thanks, Adrian.

Will always try to avoid making url changes like this, but when they’re unavoidable it’d be great to have full wildcard support right in the Redirects tool.

Thanks guys
