301 and 404 redirections on prestashop 1.6.1.15- Looking for free Module

[adamthomson123]

can I redirect old urls  (prestashop1.6.1.15) to new urls (prestashop1.6.1.15)? without buying a redirect module?

old url was: mywebsite/3-old-url/abc

New url: mywebsite/old-url/abc

how to redirect pages to the new url without buying a redirect module? 

thanks in advance

For free I don't know.

You can do it with mine here, but it's not free : https://addons.prestashop.com/en/url-redirects/86239-easy-redirect-301-302.html

Hi Oliver, when I look at redirect modules an important feature is the last time the redirect was executed.  This allows us, when there are a lot of redirects, i.e. migration to ps from other....to remove the redirects when they have old dates of last hit.  

I did not notice this in your module and something for you to consider.

 

=== for free 

you would place them in your .htaccess file

your can build the redirects using free online tools, for example:

also consider logging 404's with alert option to admin so they can action, else they have to use 3rd party tools to discover 404's, ie. screaming frog, semrush etc.

I like that you have a hit counter already, so having date/time last hit will be good complement.  

Happy developing

do you send alert or rely on admin to check the module for 404's?  if they have to check, they never will looool.

I do not send alert.
