New forum name redirect (curiosity)


Recommended Posts

Actually, nothing is saved anywhere.  It doesn't matter what text is in the url.  It can be anything. The topic or forum ID is all that matters.  The current topic or forum name is pulled from the database and a 301 redirect occurs to that. 

Example for this thread:

Same for forums:

Oh! Thank you.

Now I know how it works, and it is not necessary to do a 301 redirect through .htaccess
