Create redirect on alias update #27
Conversation
…nder and OnDocFormSave - Modified plugin.redirector.php to capture alias prior to save (OnDocFormRender). If the alias has changed and the system settings permit then add a new redirect record (OnDocFormSave) - Created new system setting: redirector.on_alias_update (Yes/No) - Updated readme.txt

It looks like you accidentally committed the change of the sample build configs to your local build configs, may want to try and correct that if you can :) Also looks like you added a changelog entry to the readme instead of the changelog file? |

Thanks for noticing those. I'll get them corrected and committed. I wasn't sure if it was my place to change the changelog.txt file, but I will do now you've suggested it. |
- Removed local build configs from repo. - docs/readme.txt entry moved to docs/changelog.txt
|
Thanks Mark, I've made those changes now. |

This looks like an awesome feature. I'm working on merging some PRs into the new location at modxcms/Redirector. Would love some help coming up to with some tests to make sure it is ready. |

Manually merged in to new version.. PR on modxcms soon! Also; renamed setting to "track_uri_updates" and made it combo-boolean type. Tracking alias changes only isn't enough. Because when you have/child/pages/ Redirector need to have the whole path instead of the alias of the resource itself. |
Updated regex redirect checker.
Added the ability for redirects to be created whenever a resource alias has changed. This will help none-technical users who aren't familiar with setting up 301 redirects or forget it's importance. The redirect will only be created if a record for that resource does not already exist. This can be enabled/disabled via system settings if required.
