Redirect target route to CMS page #119

Open aziwaan opened 9 years ago

Hi Vinai,

Im looking to use the target route option and would like to redirect to a CMS page. Is it possible to do so with this extension. If not it would be a neat feature to add. 404 pages are OK, but a cms page gives us way more control over the messaging and styling.

BTW, Im using CE 1.9 in multistore mode trying to set up b2b/wholesale store and everything else is working like a charm ; )

You can enter the URL key of a CMS page, too. For example more/information.html will redirect to a CMS page (if it exists) with the URL key foo/about-us.html/. The only thing to keep in mind is the trailing slash. I'm sure you will be able to manage to set something up...

After testing a bit more it seems that the extension is not performing how it should within the multistore setup. I have it disabled in all other store views except for my b2b_store scope. However it is effecting the default store view still. I am using customer activation as well, but that seems to working fine, once I log in everything is correct. The extension was working (except for my original problem above) and was producing the 404 pages for restricted categories, but after playing with the store scope settings now it seems to be playin up

Could there be DB entries I need to clear?

The only other thing Im doing slightly different in my workflow is that Ive started using modgit, but it seems to install the extension without a error, have you ever had problems with it? .

Thanks in advance.
