Redirects not created

adweso

Hello,

I tried to migrate this website with more than 40.000 articles, but the migration process was interrupted (unknown reason). After restarting all articles were migrated, but the redirects weren't created.

I've now restored the working copy of the website and configured your plugin. Do you have a clue, what's going wrong ?

Best regards

Andy

Hi Andy,

Could you tell me more details about the redirect issue here so I can check?

adweso

Not really. Your tool converted all articles, but it doesn't created the redirects. If I look into Components -> Redirects, the list there is empty.

Let me check with our team and get back to you.

Hi, adweso

I want to inform you that the migration process from the K2 migrate plugin operates independently from the com_redirect component. It does not have interactions or actions related to com_redirect. The migration process is functioning correctly as intended.

But the migration plugin should provide the redirect extension with the old and new urls, right ? How else are you supposed to migrate over 30,000 articles without losing your ranking in the search engines?

adweso Hi

Our plugin helps to import content only, the URLs as you mentioned related to the the menu system, it's not handled by the plugin.

Good morning Saquaros

I also need assistance with the "Auto Re-direct link of K2 to Com_content", my articles were converted but now i have 404 errors on all my urls

On the extensions document page it clearly states:

"Auto Re-direct link of K2 to Com_content
Once migration is done, K2 content (categories, items, tags, extra fields ...) would be unnecessary, it could be removed, or disable, this will lead to broken links - 404 pages from K2 and it is not good for your SEO and users. The stable version can now solve the issue by make redirect for K2 links to Joomla com_conten (for content converted only)"

What needs to be done to get the Auto Re-direct setup / working ?
