How to redirect links

To set up a link redirect for your site, first log into cPanel and look for this icon:



That would then take you to this page:




Type:
Type of page redirect

http://(www.)?: Your website, simple scroll and select. Afterwards write in the subdirectory that you would like redirected(leave blank for the main page).

Redirects to: Write the url of the new redirected page.


Another way of implementing if WP is incorrectly recognizing:

Open up your .htaccess file in your home files, and add this line outside of the WP structure -

Redirect 301 /subdirectory http://destinationurlhere.com

Change 'subdirectory' to the path on your site that you want redirected(eg: yoursite.com/subdirectory), and 'http://destinationurlhere.com' to the target redirected url.
