Having problem with redirects.
I can see from my deployment that the redirect rule has been created also I’ve run a build on my local and also in the _redirect file I can the redirect, is it something with my plan? I am current on a Starter plan.
Netlify Deployment
_redirect file
/10-steps-to-buying-a-new-house/ / 301
Netlify URL: https://mystifying-stonebraker-9e3541.netlify.app/
Thanks!
Hi, @carlos.claro. If you add a “!” to the rule like so it will work:
/10-steps-to-buying-a-new-house/ / 301!
What is happening now is that there is a file for that URL. The file is found at this path in the deploy:
/10-steps-to-buying-a-new-house/index.html
The file shadowing behavior means no redirect for this path will apply unless forced. Adding the “!” to the status “forces” the redirect even when a file exists for a URL.
If there are other questions, please let us know.
this is great @luke!! Thanks a lot!
