Introduction
------------

What does it do?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This TYPO3 CMS frontend extension restores the use of different HTTP statuscodes
for redirects depending on the type of the selected shortcut for a page.

- 307 for redirects to rather random pages
  (first subpage, random subpage, parent page)
- 301 for redirects to a well-defined page
  (explicitly selected page)

Motivation & Usage
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This extension is made due to the discussion in `TYPO3 issue 73148 <https://forge.typo3.org/issues/73148>`_

Please take a look into the ticket to understand why the TYPO3 core team did not want
this functionality to be part of the core anymore.

The extension overwrites a method in the core! Keep this in mind for core updates and other
installed extension which may try to override the same class.

As described above this is a patch extension only. If you want to let your editors manage shortcuts
to your own needs, then you should take a look into the following great extensions:

- »URL Forwarding« by Patrick Broens (`EXT:url_forwarding <https://typo3.org/extensions/repository/view/url_forwarding>`_)
- »My Redirects« by Benjamin Serfhos (`EXT:my_redirects <https://typo3.org/extensions/repository/view/my_redirects>`_)
