Structure & Configuration
Redirects
Redirects
Location to create one in the menu of the CMS: Configuration > Search & Metadata > URL redirects > Add redirect
Before you actually create the redirect, take a screenshot of the page that will be archived. I recommend using the Google Plugin called "Awesome Screenshot", which our Director also recommended, and it can take a full length page screenshot without you even needing to scroll down. Add this onto the ticket once the redirect is complete so there's a record of the old page
- + Add redirect
- Be sure you are in the right cms > either Sydney or VisitNSW.
- You need to do it with the "node" number. The cms won't recognise it if you just paste the URL rather than the node number and the page exists. The node is the number in the url of the specific page after the word "node".
- If you are creating a vanity url, entering in the URL is okay, because the page doesn't exist.
- Be careful when filling in the fields. Note each field for the 'path' and 'to' is different - one has a '/' and one doesn't. Make sure you don't duplicate the '/' in the first field, and add one in for the second.
- Path* = node/'page id number' found in url. E.g. the Events page: https://www.sydney.com/events, has the node id of 8126 so e.g. https://www.sydney.com/node/8126
You would then enter into the Path field: node/13256
- To* = website url /node/ new page's id. So e.g. https://www.sydney.com/node/1234
You would enter in /node/1234
Note: it is essential you copy the exact node number. If you use the wrong one, you will redirect something else, and you won't be notified of the incorrect number.
If you need to delete a redirect, click to "add" a new one, and enter in the existing node number. You'll then get a dropdown of options once you click out of the field, to "edit the existing redirect". If you click that link, you can then choose to delete it.
Making the archived page hidden from search:
Once the redirect has been saved first, you then go onto the page that needs to be archived, and scroll down to the "meta" section. Untick the first two options, and select the rest of the entire list.
Vanity URL
Vanity URL
Location to create one in the menu of the CMS: Configuration > Search & Metadata > URL redirects > Add redirect
- + Add redirect
- Be sure you are in the right cms > either Sydney or VisitNSW.
- This is the only time you'll ever put in letters/a slug into the redirect field. So in the "from" field, you make up the vanity URL that you want. E.g /feelnew
- In the "to" field, you then use the node number for where the page actually lives. So think of it as linking the content to the fake url.
- The node is the number in the url of the specific page after the word "node". To locate this, go to the page of content, click to new draft/edit, and look at the url.
E.g. the Events page: https://www.sydney.com/events, has the node id of 8126 so e.g. https://www.sydney.com/node/8126
You would then enter into the Path field: node/13256 - Be careful when filling in the fields. Note each field for the 'path' and 'to' is different - one has a '/' and one doesn't. Make sure you don't duplicate the '/' in the first field, and add one in for the second.
- Click to save it - leave the auto populated fields underneath. You can add multiple vanity urls to the same piece of content.
URL's & Mapping
URL's & Mapping
- Articles are automatically mapped. You won't need to do this
New page creation:
- Menu settings > tick "provide a menu link"
- In "parent link" > "+" > select the parent page for where the new page should be mapped to
URLs:
- Page meta* > "slug" field - no spaces, only hyphens, be as specific as possible to the page
For example, the Spas & Wellbeing page. The "parent page" is "Fashion and Shopping", the slug is simply "spas-and-wellbeing", creating this url:
https://www.sydney.com/things-to-do/fashion-and-shopping/spas-and-wellbeing
