Khoros Communities 20.8 Release Notes

Hi Fellsteruk 

Hope you will like the feature. 😊

Herein, are the answers to your questions:

1. Will all existing redirects added by support be listed within Admin allowing us to edit them rather than adding another redirect?

No, all the existing redirects will not be listed in the Admin. With this feature, you can create new redirect rules. However, please note that if you wish to change an existing redirect rule (that was previously created), you will have to delete that first and create a new one in the Admin. This is a limitation right now.

2. Is there a search feature, i have thousands of redirects already active in the system, search would be super helpful, if not can we dump a list of all redirects from admin, i know support can provide this historically 

Presently, we do not have a search feature for the rules. We wanted to understand the number of rules created by Admins and provide “search” functionality accordingly. But we have it in our backlog.

3. Can the FROM and TO points be any page in community? One of the limitations of promoted search is that it's locked to "content" but i have lots of custom pages which im unable to feature in search ;( will this allow me to redirect any path or any other path, providing im not creating an infinite loop 😛 

Yes, FROM and TO can be from any community page. But we do have checks where we do not allow nested loops to get created. 

4. Does it have any rules in place to protect against numptys, obviously i'll only be grating access to approved users but we all make mistakes, will it prevent creating loops or adding multiple redirects from the same place. 

There are not any specific rules that can protect against numptys, as such. 🙂 However, we have delete functionality. If ever you feel that rule is created by mistake, it can be deleted in a jiffy and redirection will be reversed instantly. Further, we do have checks in place to avoid nested loops. 

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks
