URL redirects allow you to create short, easy-to-remember links that automatically send visitors to pages with longer, more complex web addresses. This is especially useful for sharing links in newsletters, flyers, or announcements where you want people to easily remember and type the web address.
đĄ Adoption Tip: Creating Memorable School Short Links
Keep short links between 1 and 3 syllables (e.g. enroll, finaid, athletics, lunch). When placing redirects on printed yard signs, banners, or handouts, omit https:// so readers only see yourschool.org/enroll.
Creating a New Redirect
Step 1: Open the Redirects Feature
Navigate to Page Management > Redirects from your dashboard hamburger menu. In the top right corner of the Redirects manager, click the blue + New Redirect button.
Step 2: Fill Out the Redirect Information
The New Redirect modal will appear with two required fields:
Redirect From*: Enter the short address you want people to type or share (e.g.
enroll,calendar,supplylists). Your school's primary domain is automatically prefixed.Redirect to*: Paste the complete, full web address of the existing page or document destination (e.g.
https://www.yourschool.org/apps/pages/enrollment-guideor a direct PDF link).
Step 3: Save Your Redirect
Click Save. Your new short link activates immediately and is ready to share. Both trailing slash and non-trailing slash versions (e.g. yourschool.org/enroll/ and yourschool.org/enroll) will resolve seamlessly to the destination page.
