Thank you for your help 🙂
I don’t know what prestashop is but I doubt it the cause of the problem. Can you explain what you have done and what isn’t working? For example, can you provide a URL that isn’t redirecting, and show the redirection that you created to handle it.
The hyphen between PRODUCTEURS and Delphine is different to the other hyphens – is that intentional?
I really don not know how was made the URL before with this prestashop tool..
I would like to make the redirections one by one for the 130 posts. Do u know why it does not work ? is it because of this hyphen ?
Thank you !
Yes, it’s the special hyphen. A URL consists of a specific set of characters, and everything else has to be encoded in a special way to be accepted. Your browser handles this transparently, but Redirection doesn’t. To get the URL to work you will need to URL encode the special hyphen.
For example, if you put the above source URL as:
/blog/164_PORTRAITS-DE-PRODUCTEURS%E2%80%93Delphine-RIO.html
Then the redirect will work.
I know this is a nuisance, and a future version of Redirection will transparently encode things. But for now you need to do it yourself.
You can use a tool such as http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/dencoder/ to encode something for you.
Hello John and thank you for your reply.
I made some others tries with others url. But it does not work when I make a redirection from my old blog to my new one.
Is it normal ?
For exemple
URL source http://www.caviar-de-neuvic.com/blog/156_.html
URL destination : http://caviar-de-neuvic.com/testblog/la-peche-a-l-esturgeon/
Thank you for your help
