How can I Redirect deleted posts pages to the homepage
Posted: Tue Jun 27, 2006 3:57 pmHi,
I had done an error when importing topics from my old board and I have to massively delete around 1400 pages that have already bein indexed by Google
<img>
And I need to import them again.
The problem is that they will get different viewtopic.php?t=n numbers and be different pages.
Now what happens is that Google doesn't simply get a 404 on phpBB but get a page saying:
"The topic or post you requested does not exist"
Now Google would continue indexing this page as it seem to be legit with a valid URL but will create like 1400 dups and dead links for users.
Is there an option to 301 redirect these deleted topics pages to the homepage?
