Redirect all traffic to a static page?

    Hello.

    I run a music website called Only Australian Music

    https://www.onlyausmusic.com/main/

    What I would like to do is offer a promotion for a particular band/artist, whereby every person visiting the site, from no matter where…Google or Facebook or whatever, will get redirected to a particular page containing the promotion.

    Obviously this promo page would also contain a “continue to your requested link” and/or an “Enter Site” link, which would take the person to the place they wanted to go originally, presumably after they have at least perused the promotion.

    I am not sure if there is a proper name for this, otherwise I would google it.

    Hi Govpatel, thank you for the quick reply.

    I think that I may not have articulated my request very well.

    I would like all incoming links, no matter where they are from, to go to a page containing a promotion.

    This promotional page should also contain a link that will take the reader where he was originally wanting to go, as well as a standard “Enter Site” link.

    At the risk of sounding like a deviate, some porn sites have something like this. You click on a link and get taken to a “prove you are 18 or over” page, before being allowed to follow the original link.

    I hope thats a little clearer.

    I solved this issue with a plugin called “Thickbox Announcement”. It took a little fiddling and a new page template and it’s not 100% right (my own fault), but it does the job I was looking for.

    You can see it here

    Thank you for your time Govpatel.
