Global — Config — Redirect 001

Global_Config_Redirect_001
technical

What this is used for

One redirect, applied at the edge by Next middleware before the page renders. 301 by default. Use this to keep an old URL working after a slug change, and to fold the legacy subdomains into the main site. SEO requirement §5.3.

How you use it

Site-wide configuration. These are handled by the technical team; change them only when asked to.

FieldWhat goes in itNotes

Internal name

internalName
required
Short text

Editor-facing name, e.g. 'Old Maldives landing page' or 'my. subdomain → My Kuoni'. Not shown to customers and not part of the redirect.

From (the old URL)

from
required
Short text

The URL that should stop working, as a path: /old-page. Add a trailing /* to match everything underneath it: /brochures/* . To fold in a legacy subdomain, put the host first: my.kuoni.co.uk/* , surfb2b.kuoni.co.uk/* , giftlist.kuoni.co.uk/* . No https:// prefix. The trailing slash is ignored, so /old-page and /old-page/ are the same rule.

To (the new URL)

to
required
Short text

Where the visitor and the search engine should end up: /new-page, or a full https:// URL for another site. If 'From' ends in /*, you can write :splat in here to carry the matched part through — /brochures/* → /inspiration/:splat sends /brochures/asia to /inspiration/asia.

301 = permanent. This is the default and the right answer almost always: it passes the old URL's search ranking to the new one. 302 = temporary — use it only when the old URL is genuinely coming back (a seasonal campaign page, a page down for a rebuild). A 302 passes no ranking.

Active

isEnabled
Yes / no

Turn a redirect off without deleting it — useful for testing, and for keeping a record of a redirect that has been retired. Off behaves exactly as if the entry did not exist.

Notes

notes
Long text

Why this redirect exists, and when it can be removed. Nobody can work that out from the two URLs a year later.

Component key (sitemap catalogue ID)

componentKey
required
Short text

Catalogue ID. Do not change.
