Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 1:12 pm

There are many reasons why you might want to redirect a URL in Shopify. Maybe you’re changing the name of a product and want to make sure customers can still find it. Or maybe you’re moving your whole store to a new domain and need to set up some redirects to make sure everyone ends up in the right place.

Whatever the reason, redirecting a URL in Shopify is a pretty simple process. Here’s how to do it:

PRO TIP: If you are considering redirecting a URL in Shopify, it is important to be aware that there are some potential risks involved. Redirecting a URL can result in lost traffic and search engine rankings, and can also cause problems with some features on your site. Before redirecting a URL, be sure to weigh the potential risks and benefits carefully.

1. Log into your Shopify admin panel and go to the “Online Store” section. 2. Click on “Navigation” and then “URL Redirects.” 3. Click on “Add URL Redirect.” 4.

In the “From” field, enter the old URL that you want to redirect. 5. In the “To” field, enter the new URL that you want people to be redirected to. 6. Make sure the “Redirect status” is set to “302 – Found.” 7. Click on “Save.”

That’s it! You’ve successfully redirected a URL in Shopify. Now whenever someone tries to visit the old URL, they’ll be automatically redirected to the new one.
