Relative Links No Redirection

[sjezewski]

Details

• Project URL: http://pachyderm.readthedocs.io/
• Build URL (if applicable): n/a
• Read the Docs username (if applicable): n/a

Expected Result

I would expect

http://pachyderm.readthedocs.io/getting_started/getting_started.html

To redirect to the proper default language / version:

http://pachyderm.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting_started/getting_started.html

Actual Result

a 404

I've found the Redirects section under the admin panel, but I don't see a way to do this for all assets on the site.

E.g. A 'prefix redirect' allows me to do:

faq.html -> /$lang/$version/faq.html

But I want to do this for all pages by default. Is there a way to do this?

@sjezewski I'm not following you correctly. Why the redirect you suggested is not enough?

[sjezewski]

I think its possible to do it that way, but unwieldy.

If I have ~500 unique pages on my site, it's kind of a pain to enter 500 new redirect rules to accommodate each page. And harder to keep that list up to date w all the pages (as I add or delete documents from the site).

It's not the same, but it's related to #2904

This is a new feature and needs a design decision. Related to #2968 and #3465

Although, I think this can be done with our new $rest keyword, see https://docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user-defined-redirects.html#exact-redirects

Ok, I can confirm I was able to make this redirect with this.

I'm closing this issue, as this can be done with the above redirect, feel free to reopen if you consider

I think the redirect needed here is /$rest -> /en/latest/
