Hey,
I’ve been trying to fix an issue with redirects not working and can’t figure it out, a fresh pair of eyes would be much appreciated.
I moved by blog a few years ago to Grav and some URLs changed, and I had redirects set up to send people to the new URL.
But the redirects no longer seem to be working.
I have the redirects set up in system/config/site.yaml
What am I doing wrong?
If I were you I would set the redirects in the Grav .htaccess file.
@bleutzinn, I’m curious why… Would you mind sharing some arguments?
@techielass, I’m missing the indentation in the image you are sharing.
In my default Grav 1.6.26 install:
Failing: Error 404
redirects:
'/xxx': '/typography' <-- no indentation
Working:
redirects:
'/xxx': '/typography' <-- with indentation

That worked, thank you! I knew a second pair of eyes out notice the issue. Thanks.
Some time ago I had problems with custom routes and redirects. They simply didn’t work.
Later the probable cause was in that I was also using a custom slug in the page frontmatter. Somehow this confused Grav. But by then I had already switched to doing redirects before Grav comes into play. Just to avoid complications.
