Advanced URL Manager & Redirects

CMS > Custom Modules
1

I have a use case where we need to change the URL for a bunch of Items in a custom module.
Lets say it currently looks like this"
domain.com.au/one/two/three/itemname but I would like to change it to domain.com.au/one/two/itemname.

I do need to make sure the old URL still works however as these items are in the wild. So my question is:

Do I change the URLs then add individual redirects for all items? OR does the “Advanced URL manager” take care of this for us?

Hi @James. The Advanced URL Manager doesn’t create any redirects for you, or maintain the ‘true/original’ URLs.
You’d need to set up the individual redirects.

However, I wonder if you can utilise the “Allow multiple parents” setting for this?
I haven’t explored this outside of eCommerce though… and I guess your ‘one’, ‘two’, 'three’s would need to be actual module items???
