Introduction

What does it do?

This extension is a “service” that handles the HTTP response status code 301 Moved Permanently, used for permanent redirection, based on actual page with the purpose of avoiding duplicate content (SEO optimizing).

This extension will also resolve the RealURL issue on duplicate content that will occur if your page has a “Speaking URL path segment” set. Eg. if your page name is “Contact Me” (depending on your RealURL configuration) the url will be http://example.com/contact-me/ but if you give it an “Speaking URL path segment” named “contact” you will get the following link http://example.com/contact/ although you can still access the page through the “page-name-link” resulting in possible duplicate content. With this extension enabled instead of duplicate content a HTTP 301 Permanently Moved (redirect) will be made from “contact-me” to “contact”.

Note that this extension does NOT depend on RealURL and will work in any case.

Administration
