Redirects – same domain, different folder, different wordpress templates/folders

  • ks,
    This looks like it has to do with your site performing a canonical redirect prior to looking for the redirect URL.

    What this means is that since your site does not use ‘www’ in front of it, WordPress will automatically redirect to the non-www URL (because that is now you have it in your settings). The https://www.aventurahq.com/asr URL will never be matched to a redirect (because it will never load that page). If you use relative URLs, the plugin will take care of the rest for you, so you do not need the full URL in the request or destination if it is on the same domain.

    So, to fix, change your request URL to:
    /asr/
    and the destination to:
    /info/asr-white-paper/

    This should then match the request (either with or without the www) and send the user to the correct destination.

    Let me know if you still have issues.
    Warm regards,
    Don

    Also – one thing to note – you cannot have a folder called ‘asr’ off the root, or the redirect will not work either (because of the way WordPress only loads on non-existing folder and file requests.
