To set up automatic redirects:
Each automatic redirect diverts website visitors from all broken URLs that match a given URL structure to a single destination URL. For example, the /products/* automatic redirect will redirect anyone visiting a broken product page link to your chosen destination URL.
- From your Shopify admin, open the Redirect Pro app.
- From the app navigation menu on the left, open the Automatic Redirects page.
- Identify the automatic redirect you'd like to set up.
- Ensure it's deactivated. If it's currently activated, click the Deactivate button.
- Edit the destination URL.
- Click Activate. The automatic redirect will now be online.
Tip: After setting up an automatic redirect you can test it's working.
