📘 Good to know
Redirects use the HTTP 301 Moved Permanently status code.
Overview
URL redirects can be used to redirect traffic from one web page to another. When you change a URL on your Shogun Frontend store, you can create a URL redirect to ensure your customers can still find what they're looking for.
📘 There are free tools online that allow you to scan your site and find any dead links that you may wish to create a URL redirect for in Shogun Frontend.
