The SuluRedirectBundle adds simple but powerful capabilities for managing redirects to Sulu’s administration interface and allows content managers to manage redirects without any knowledge of web servers.
The SuluRedirectBundle is compatible with Sulu starting from version 2.0. Have a look at the require section in
the composer.json to find an
up-to-date list of the requirements of the bundle.
Execute the following composer commands to add the bundle to the dependencies of your project:
composer require sulu/redirect-bundleAfterwards, visit the bundle documentation to find out how to set up and configure the SuluRedirectBundle to your specific needs.
One of the great features of this bundle is the ability to import redirects from a CSV file.
The most simplified file just contains two columns, source and target.
Of course, all the other options like statusCode, sourceHost, and enabled can also be set in the import file.
It’s also possible to override existing redirects with an import; you just have to set the same value for source.
Sometimes it’s necessary to prepare redirects which are not ready yet, especially if you have a large number of redirects. Of course there’s a solution for that — toggler in the toolbar to enable or disable redirects quickly. This allows you to import a large number of disabled redirects and then check them in the administration interface, before enabling them when needed.
The SuluRedirectBundle comes with three different statuses to be used for redirects:
- 301 Moved permanently
- 302 Moved temporarily
- 410 Gone
Those status codes are explained in detail here.
This bundle also adds the possibility to automatically create redirects with status 410 Gone, if a page or a entity with a route has been removed. This is very useful, because now search engines know, that this page has been deleted.
