URL Mapping/ Redirecting (301) Lagging

Recommended Posts

I'm trying to redirect all search engine links from an old site to a new site and I have followed the steps to redirect them using the correct code (below) and pasted all redirects into the developer tools of Squarespace however the links don't seem to be redirecting when I test it with a simple google search. Does this process usually take a while to propagate or I have done it incorrectly? I should note that I have checked and all URL codes are on one line each.

Old site: https://www.herestudio.net/

New site: https://www.herestudio.au/

/oldsite -> /newsite 301

I suspect you may be misunderstanding how URL Mapping works on a Squarespace site. It only redirects URLs that do not exist on a Squarespace site to an existing page on that same Squarespace site.

It does not handle URLs outside of the Squarespace site, other SS sites, or  other domains.

If I'm reading your domain registrations correctly. I think you will want to set up domain forwarding from herestudio.com.au to herestudio.au. You may also want to update the forwarding for herestudio.net to forward to you newest site, skipping the stop at herestudio.com.au along the way.
