When publishing a staged page to the live domain, HubSpot would create a COS URL Mapping of the following newly created archive page: **[http://www.domain.com/page-name-archived](http://www.domain.com/page-name-archived)** which will redirect to **/new-page**

However, HubSpot should automiatcally create a COS URL Mapping of **[http://www.domain.com/page-name](http://www.domain.com/page-name)** to **/new-page**

It seems pointless for HubSpot to create a COS URL Mapping to a URL that was never live in the first place. I am not sure why it does this, as it should create one to the current live page (without the archive)

I had to manually add a COS URL Mapping as HubSpot only mapped the -archived page (which was never live in the first place). When you are publishing 20+ staged pages with URL updates, it is a time consuming process to ensure all old URLS redirect. No point redirecting the -archive pages.

Hi everyone! My name is Hallie, and I’m a Program Manager on the CXM Team. I’m setting this as ‘Idea Submitted’ because it’s not currently on the roadmap. If anything changes with this, I’ll be sure to update you all here. Thank you for your understanding in the meantime!
