Redirect with XF

**hollosch** · February 4, 2015

Hi, how can i create a #redirect-page @xenforo?

Two ways:
- Use the "Create New" menu in an area to create a new synonym.
OR
- From the page that will be the redirect target, go to Options > Manage Synonyms.

The target-page is a old mw-wiki portal-page...

http://geislingen.net/wiki/Portal:Wi...n_VERSTÄNDNIS should redirect to http://geislingen.net/wiki/WSV

and this error occurs:

"The current Prefix and Title combination matches another item"

I don't know which prefix i should use...

Both Portal:Wir_schaffen_VERST%C3%84NDNIS and WSV already exist.

Basically, if Portal:Wir_schaffen_VERST%C3%84NDNIS is supposed to be a redirect, then it shouldn't be a different page as it is now.

You can't keep "Portal:Wir_schaffen_VERST%C3%84NDNIS" as a page AND have it be a redirect to WSV at the same time.

Thus "The current Prefix and Title combination matches another item" when you try to name the synonym "Portal:Wir_schaffen_VERST%C3%84NDNIS" because the other item is a page called "Portal:Wir_schaffen_VERST%C3%84NDNIS"

Hi, i don't want to keep "Portal:Wir_schaffen_VERST%C3%84NDNIS " but there are lot of links to "Portal:Wir_schaffen_VERST%C3%84NDNIS ", because it should redirect to WSV.

It's a bit clearer now ?

Now i deleted "Portal:Wir schaffen VERSTÄNDNIS" and try to make a synonym:

1. The title you have entered is too short (0 characters). Please lengthen your title, but use no more than 125 characters.
2. The current Prefix and Title combination matches another item
