      Hello I do SEO consulting and a client launch a new Magento Enterprise site.

      My question is they changed a URL from /category-list/ to /category/ and it is 301 redirecting correctly but the links off of that URL are not. Example:

      www.site.com/category/ if you click a link the next one shows up like this:

      www.site.com/categorty-list/vendor/ for example.

      Any help would be appreciated!

      Thanks

        Hi-

        I am relatively new to Magento, so my advice may be limited, but have you tried checking the Magento URL rewrites? Magento creates its own rewrites which you can fund under Catalog/URL Rewrite Management. You can look there for the "bad" URLS and take them out/redirect them.

        Good Luck

        Ken

          Hey There - I too am not very familiar with "under the hood" of Maganto. Sounds like you may need to do individual redirects / URL re-writes. I'm not sure if there is a way to do it automatically. Here are a few reousrces that might help;

          • http://blog.maximusbusiness.com/2012/10/magento-url-rewriting-regex-and-301-redirects-tips/

          If you can't find it there, please circle back so I can send the question to another Moz Associate who might have more of a working knowledge with Magento

          Thanks!
