Title: 301 redirect plugin for redirect VM 1 urls to Virtuemart 2 urls (for migration)
Post by: werian on November 06, 2012, 00:18:49 AM
Hello there!

This little plugin allows you inform Google or Bing, that you already migrate from Virtuemart 1 to Virtuemart 2, and your site has new urls.

This plugin redirects Virtuemart 1 urls to Virtuemart 2 urls. It redirects 4 types of VM 1 url:
- VM 1 shop main page => VM 2 shop main page
- VM 1 product details page => VM 2 product details page
- VM 1 category page=> VM 2 category page
- VM 1 manufacturer page => VM 2 manufacturer page

Download: http://joomstuff.com/free/plg_vm1_vm2_links_redirect.php (http://joomstuff.com/free/plg_vm1_vm2_links_redirect.php)

Disadvantages:
- Works only for Virtuemart 1 component urls (not for example Joomla 1.5 contact page etc.)
- I'm not sure how it works with some huge SEF components for VM 1, but I'm sure that example when you had old "only-joomla-SEF-based-Virtuemart-1", and full Virtuemart 2 SEF - it works perfect.


Regards, sorry for my poor English & have fun!  ;)
