One solution I can think of would be to move or duplicate the link (to redirector/virtual page) dropdown to appear below the pagetype dropdown. This would give the user a call to action and would clarify the next step in the process.
- The save and publish button does not reappear until the user has saved the page as a draft. This needs to be mentioned in a help label below the choose link dropdown. "Once you have a chosen a page please click "save draft".
I did notice that this behaviour only occurs on the first time you change a page to the redirector/virtual pagetypes. If you change the pagetype to another pagetype and then back to a redirector/virtual pagetype the link is already set so the save&publish button does not disappear.

After changing page type to redirector or virtual page, saving draft the "publish" button disappears.
Changing pagetype doesn't give any indication you need to update the link to redirector/virtual page before you can publish.
TASK: Provide the user with instructions/ feedback indicating requirements for this action (perhaps a generic message at the top of the page).
