Thanks to the great work of netzpirat, the good old Language Redirect Extension has been updated to work with Radiant 0.8.0.
Thanks netzpirat!
Legacy Path Handler, a Radiant Extension
Posted by Giovanni Intini | Filed under Radiant, Rails, Ruby, Ruby on Rails
We’re preparing to deploy the new Mikamai site (not up at the time of this post), that runs on the wonderful Rails-based RadiantCMS.
The VPS we’re deploying to runs on Phusion Passenger, and that means we can’t use mod_alias or mod_rewrite to 301-redirect the old URLs, already indexed by Google, to their new locations.
To solve this problem I wrote a little Radiant Extension, called LegacyPathHandler, that reads a simple list of URLs from a text file and does a 301 redirection on them before handling the control to Radiant’s default SiteController.
It works quite fine for us, but it has no specs/tests or documentation. Please feel free to contribute to the project if you feel you can improve it.
