Once you click the URL Redirects page, you will find a filtering area to help you sort and find specific old and new URLs for redirection.
There is a redirection list that displays existing URL redirects. Clicking a row in this list will take you to the Edit URL Redirection page, where you can modify the settings of a particular redirection.
To create a new URL redirection, click the + New Redirect button, located in the upper-right corner.
You will be directed to a form where you can define the redirection settings.
Fill out following fields with the appropriate URLs you desire to redirect. This is useful for managing broken links or changing URL structures.
Old URL: Enter the old URL that is no longer in use. This is the URL you want to redirect from.
New URL: Enter the URL to which users will be redirected when they click on the old URL. This is the destination URL.
Click the REDIRECT button after filling the fields.

On the URL Redirects page, you have the option to perform Bulk URL Redirections, which can be useful when you need to redirect multiple URLs at once.

URL Settings are crucial for maintaining website structure and SEO. Often used for products and categories along with the rest of the single pages that adds to the link structure of the e-commerce website, ensuring a standardized URL structure.
URL Settings are divided into 3 main categories under the roof of URL Settings, respectively, URL Settings, Product URL Settings, Category URL Settings.
Follow through the Sales Channels > Marketing sidebar and click the URL Settings page.
Insert the Language of the link setting desired to be done, this will clarify which language your root domain targeted, as in /en, /ar extensions.
Insert the Old URL to be redirected which is often assigned by the system but does not match with the URL structure of your website, as in the example /category/643.
Insert the New URL that matches with your content and URL structure for example /bags/.
This section can be used as URL redirections as we studied above since its 301 redirection nature and it will store all your redirected links from both screens; URL Settings and URL Redirections.
Product URL Settings are created to standardize the URL structure of single products pages that exist on your e-commerce site.
For instance, when a new product is registered on your website, the Old URL is automatically generated. When the product is moved to a specific category, a unique URL is generated for the product and entered in the New URL field.
Often used with the combination of (domain)/(category) - Product Name-Base Code.
While domain is stable and not changeable, category will be dependent on the category tree where you desired your product to be stored, this will help you build a healthy breadcrumb strategy, and product name/base code combination will be coming from the key section of Product Url Settings and can be combined with more keys as desired.
Category URL Settings are designed to standardize the URL structure of categories displayed on your e-commerce website.
Whenever you create or modify a category, these settings ensure that the URL structure remains consistent and user-friendly.
It is often used with the keys of parent-name, which refers to the parent category in the category tree, in this example let's say ‘women’ and name will be referred as the category name, in this example we can call it ‘shoes’ to be explained more clearly. But can be enriched as desired by consulting your authorized person who is assigned to your e-commerce brand.
