Publishing post with redirect

CW8 — Tue, 28 Nov 2023 14:29:04 GMT

Keep getting this error after we have set up redirects for all blog posts: A URL mapping is currently redirecting "http://xxx/*blogpost" to "https://domain/blogg-article". Consider editing this URL mapping to make it more targeted, or setting it to be ignored if a page exists at the requested URL. (domains edited)

It works great for posts allready created, but can not schedule new ones to publishing.

We have an external site that fetches all blog posts from hubspot and the hubspot account is set up so that all blog posts redirect to that domain.
Like this: https://hubspot-domain.com/new-blog-post => https://external-domain.com/new-blog-post
Any workaround for this, or do we have to remove all redirects to to be able to pubhlish. In that case, how do we redirect all blog posts?

Hello @CW8 thank you for posting in our Community!

I would recommend If you want to work around the error message you can set the redirect as disabled when a page exists at the URL, publish the page, then edit the redirect back to the original settings.

You need to delete, and publish the page, then edit the redirect back to the original settings.

To our top experts @GRajput @danmoyle any recommendations to @CW8 matter?

Thank you,

Pam

Ok, so no proper fix for this. This solution will not be tolerated by our client, as it is way too cumbersome to deal with disabling redirects whenever you publish something. Thanks for the answer though!

edit: even though this is not the best solution, it is the only solution. thankfully this was just an issue on re-publishing posts, not for new posts, so it was an acceptable solution for the client.

Thanks again
