Redirect "/catalog/####" to /dataset (Library page) #214

Can we setup a redirect for users who try to access a dataset using an "old" link (in the style of our previous URL formatting)?

For example, we previously formatted our URL like "www.lacounts.org/catalog/4447" for a dataset. What we are finding is there are users who saved old URL shortcuts and attempt to access these dataset pages now. The result is a 404 ERROR.

Instead of this 404 ERROR, can we redirect these users accessing any "/catalog/___" URL to the standard Library page "/dataset" ?

It’d be great to also redirect from URLs built like https://lacounts.org to functional URLs https://www.lacounts.org
