Creating an Alias of URL

I have my site pages grouped into folders according to the hierarchy of the site, so by default, the URL for a given page will be mydomain.com/folder-name/page-name; However, sometimes I get requests to create an alias for a page for example mydomain.com/page-name that can redirect to a page a few levels deep into the sitemap. I couldn't find anything under areas of the Site or 301 redirects to directly do so, here is my workaround (which is also be the Support from Adobe recommended solution):

  1. Create a new page under the root
  2. Make your page name the name of the redirect you want. For example, if you want your alias as stuff.com/newstuff then the name of your page in 'old '. Your URL of the Page will be updated automaticall with that name.
  3. Under more Options Add a 301 redirect to the page you want your alias to go.
  4. Optional - I choose to exclude the page from search results
  5. Publish your page

Pretty easy to do, but I didn't expect to have to create a new page to create an alias. I hope this helps.

What is an alias for page? And why you would create a page just to redirect to another page?

Sometimes I get requests to create an alias for a page for example mydomain.com/page-name that can redirect to a page a few levels deep into the site map

You should be able to do it with URL redirection tool. So, if you want to create something like www.domain.com/promotion and point it to www.domain.com/something/somewhere/promotion.html you can do with this tool.

  • How to create an alias for e-mail iCloud for my iPad?  I have no Mac or PC.

    Can Hi I create an alias of iCloud email using my iPad?  The instructions on the help page for alias iCloud is specific to the use of a Mac or PC and I have no one.

    Maybe a long shot. You can press and hold the icon Refresh (semicircular arrow) into the URL bar "Ask Site Desktop" will appear and then press that. The ability to do things is much less when you are logged in using a computer. Then try to go to the post to add the alias.

  • create an alias for a custom device page

    Is there a way to create an alias for a custom device page?

    I wish that a button on the home page of my device custom (in solution system Explorer) allow the user to create an alias and linking this alias on a channel of the system. My Vi is the following:

    This VI returns the following error:

    "Error 1172 to error creating instance of aliases in the assembly NationalInstruments.VeriStand.SystemDefinitionAPI.Alias, NationalInstruments.VeriStand.SystemDefinitionAPI, Version = 2012.0.1.0, Culture = neutral, PublicKeyToken is a6d690c380daa308, (System.NullReferenceException: determined reference is not set to an instance of an object.).

    Is there a solution?

    Hmmm... good point. You can change my original solution to configure the alias using the basic underlying storage system node type. It should work regardless of the type of channel. As for your second question, custom devices written for 2012 should be recompiled in 2013 of LabVIEW with the support of 2013 VeriStand installed. You don't have to change your code, but you must recompile the LLBs.

    In this workaround, you start by creating an alias that links to nothing. Then, you update the alias to set the DependentNode property, which connects it to the channel. You should not do it this way, but this will work around the original bug.

    Images cannot contain links. All this is done in the source code of the web page, for example using image maps, interactive, SVG or JavaScripts which follow coordinates and react accordingly. You must use a tool like Muse or Dreamweaver web creation to produce these things, but since you seem to be a perfect beginner, I strongly urge you to read at least on a few things the language HTML, CSS basics and how web ticks in general or you will for always lost.

  • Anchors create a hashtag in URL

    Hello

    I created a Web site for a client using the latest version of Muse. The company is to have a SEO job but have encountered some problems with the sites URL.

    See attached image. The Web site is a single page, and when you click on a menu option, the page scrolls to the linked anchor. But when doing a hashtag is created in the URL.

    My question is what is the process of removing the Hashtag?

    Thanks in advance.

    To hide the URL, you will need to use scripts which highlight anchors and/or rewrite the rules on the server or using manually modified .htaccess files. If you do a search on this forum or look up on the web, you will find a lot of info. This was explained several times.

  • Create a button link URL in AS3 when outside the class is used.

    I need help!

    Quick background - I'm the guy at work who has the most basic understanding, base, base of Flash and was installed.  Makes me the guy ' go to ' now.  I've been avoiding AS3 for a few years now because I'm not a software engineer and my coding knowledge is quite limited. I have googled around for an hour and get something in AS2.  Not so much with AS3.  We have recently upgraded to Flash CC and had removed all previous versions, so now I have no choice.  I can follow directions but the technical jargon associated with AS3 is a learning curve steep for me when I do something like that, maybe twice a year.

    Now, what I'm trying to accomplish:

    It is simple stupid.  I have a flash web-banner.  The background is a static image of the PNG.  It has a countdown to a date.  I need the whole banner to function as a button so that when you click on it, it takes the user to a Web site.  That's all.  That's all I need.  I was able to do this in AS2 before without much of a fight.

    So I did the countdown using the script from this site:

    http://blog.anselmbradford.com/2009/08/03/creating-a-date-countdown-timer-in-ActionScript-3-Flash /.

    It works by referencing classes by external script.  It took me a bit of tinkering, but I got it together, no problem.
    So I'm going to make a button.  I create a button object.  Invisible, place it on a layer above all the rest.  I apply this code in action:

    MyButton.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, f);

    function f (e: Event) {}

    navigateToURL (new URLRequest ("http://www.adobe.com"));   Use the url of your choice.

    }

    And then it breaks.  The SWF up errors and will not compile.
    First of all, he says:
    1180: call to a method may be undefined, event.

    So I import flash.events.Event. Then, I get:
    1180: call to a method may be undefined navigateToURL.

    1180: call to a method maybe not defined URLRequest.

    1180: call to a method may be undefined addFrameScript.

    1120: access of undefined property MouseEvent.

    So I add:

    import flash.net.navigateToURL;

    import flash.net.URLRequest;

    import flash.events.MouseEvent;

    Who clears all errors except the 1180: addFrameScript.  What I've read, when there is an external class used, I can't apply action in a frame on the timeline script?
    It is so far above my head.  I tried for hours yesterday to find a way to add the script to the button to the main class, but the closest I had been set on my button never compile errors.  I don't know what I'm doing here and why it is so difficult to do two things at the same time in AS3.  I'm just frustrated with all this now.

    Could someone take pity on me and tell me what I need to do to get this working?  Try to use small words and talk to me like I'm the fool of the village, which is how I feel right now.

    Thank you!

  • Create the resource (WSDL) URL through proxy of the company?

    I suspect its because he needs route although our company proxy. Can I set this up in the Console of Administration Weblogic or OSB?

    I set the proxy in the OSB, but it seems that I can only assign to a business service at this point, but I can't create my business until I load in the WSDL url.

    This works very well for inside WSDL inside our network. Do anyone know how to configure weblogic or VSOs to take traffic through a proxy company so we can find the wsdl for test on an external network?

    Thank you!

    Hi Cory,.

    SB Console go to System Administration > global resources > Proxy servers... Add a new proxy server here...

    Your Business Service, you configure the proxy under Advanced Configuration of Transport HTTP server...

    You can create file WSDL on Console SB by copying and pasting the content of the WSDL...

    I build a report using custom objects 4-6 and I have the field ' created by ' get the alias. However, what I really want, it is the full name of the user (and, possibly other areas, if possible). Is there a function such as 'JoinFieldValue' that will give me this information?

  • Can I create more than one URL link in a single file Flash (SWF)?

    I created a simple SWF Flash slideshow with 5 slides. I was able to relate a URL to the entire file by adding an alpha key.

    What I can't understand is the addition of a URL link to each slide. The SWF file I sused on a website and I would like to be able to click on a particular slide as it's playing to a site or a page that applies to this slide.

    Is there a way or a code I can use to do this?

    This is the code that I currently use for key now.

    function mouseClick(event:MouseEvent):void

    {

    request var = new URLRequest ("http://www.jakeandamos.com/");

    navigateToURL (request, "_blank");

    }

    I am just learning such things so I can use your help, thank you!

    You cannot duplicate the instance or function names, so you'll need to create unique names for each one who behaves differently.  If you have a function named 'mouse click '... If you want to have another function to link to somewhere else you must create a new name for this function ("mouseClick2" would work)

    There are alternative approaches, but for now, it will be easier for you to handle.

    Good day Sue.

    What handy1912 said is correct. I just wanted to add to it and provide screenshots. I always found useful Visual AIDS.

    01. Select copy / text that you want to add the link to

    02 click on the drop down links (see below)

    03 enter in an external URL, email or phone number (on phones, it will launch the native phone app to call this number)

    04. press the Enter key once you typed in your external URL, e-mail address or phone number

    * IMPORTANT, don't forget to press the Enter key or it does not apply your hyperlink *.

    05. Optional: click on hyperlinks in the Control Strip to see additional options

    06. check the box for 'Open link in a new window or tab' to open your link in a new window / tab.

    * If it is not checked, it will open the link in the same browser window.

    Here are the screenshots to illustrate each step.

  • Request URL alias

    Hi all

    I have an obligation to use aliases for our existing application URLs. The current configuration is as http://hostname.com:8001.
    We need to change it as http://newname.com:8001. We don't have no need to change the actual name of the server, but only created an alias to our dns server to use easy access as newname for the user of the application.
    Can someone please provide some documentation on how to implement this? I changed before domain name, but I don't know if it's the same approach.

    Thank you very much.

    Jeffrey

    Can someone please provide some documentation on how to implement this? I changed before domain name, but I don't know if it's the same approach.

    This can be done at the DNS level, ask your network team to add an entry on the DNS server that forwards traffic to the hostname to newname.

    Thank you
