I'm trying to redirect a deleted node to a new node.
this module doesn't appear to do that.

if it does, can someone help me?

I want http://www.shreemaa.org/drupal/node/924, which is a deleted node, to be redirected to http://www.shreemaa.org/node/928

Hi,

If I understand correctly your problem, this module doesn’t do what you want. This module redirects the user to another node when the node is being deleted. If the node is already deleted and you want to redirect to another one you should use this module:

http://drupal.org/project/path_redirect

introfini

thank you for pointing me to the correct module.

I have installed the path redirect.
the module is enabled.
do I add a redirect to my htaccess file?
I'm not exactly sure how to use this module(no readme).

hi again,

I want http://www.shreemaa.org/drupal/node/924, which is a deleted node, to be redirected to http://www.shreemaa.org/node/928

I added these lines to drupal htaccess, but made no redirect:

RewriteRule ^http://www.shreemaa.org/drupal/node/924$ http://www.shreemaa.org/drupal/node/928 [R=301,L]

I hope someone can help me with this.

To redirect from node/924 to node/928 with Path Redirect, go to Administer > Content management > URL redirects > Add redirect. Enter node/924 in From: and node/928 in To:. Select the redirect type, which might be 301 Moved Permanently, and submit.

The advantage of Path Redirect is that you can add and update redirects in the administration pages instead of editing .htaccess.

I don't have a Administer > Content management > URL redirects.
I'm running Drupal-4.7.3
and, I have the module path_redirects enabled.

I am seeing this problem with the 5.x version as well - I install the module, and enable it in Admin/Modules, but I do not see the URL Redirects menu item.

I found the problem - access to the path redirect module needs to be set to see the menu.

I am ALSO facing the same problem - with the 5.x version as well - I install the module, and enable it in Admin/Modules, but I do not see the URL Redirects menu item.
On the Access control page at Home » Administer » User management i have enables path redirect for Admin and i ma logged in as admin - still cannot see URL redirects menu under content management.
Anything i am missing? pl hlep
