URGENT: Redirect old links

[nkferraiolo]

Kristen just discovered that with the changed names of the subpages for the DHC website section (and likely MF and RAR sections), new URLs have been created. When people use the old URLs, they are taken to automatically-skinned pages on the new website, but which have dated, unformatted content. Can you help make sure that these old pages redirect to the correct pages? I can let you know which ones should go where. It'll take some time to track them all down, but for starters, here's the one we discovered this morning. This is important because the old links were used in many previous communications that people may still be referencing.

Old link: https://www.clir.org/hiddencollections/recipients/recipients/ Should redirect here: https://www.clir.org/hiddencollections/recipient-resources/

Thank you!!

The way the redirects work right now is if there is a link with .html, it's redirected to the same path without the .html extension.

There is a tool in Wordpress (under Tools -> Redirection) to set permanent redirects (301s). I've been logging the 404s to try to find patterns to take care of large groups of these. However, if you find any of these, feel free to add them in with the pattern you see on the other entries.

Here are some of the other links that need to be permanently redirected ASAP:
