How to set 404 Redirection rules

In this article, you will understand how to set up 404 redirection rules for a URL

Written by siddarth

You can now redirect your Custom Domains URL by adding 404 Redirection Rules.
​
The Redirection Rule works based on the order of position.
​
In other words, a URL will be redirected to the first matching rule from the top.

Let me explain this further with an example.
​
Say, you have two redirection rules set up.

Redirection systems will prioritise redirection rule number 1 which is at the top in terms of order of position over redirection rule number 2 which is at the lower in terms of the order of position.

Let's take another example
​

Say, you have three redirection rules set up.

Redirection systems will prioritise redirection rule number 2 which is at the top in terms of order of position over redirection rule number 3 which is at the lower in terms of the order of position.

NOTE: The 404 Redirect will not work if your landing page is live.
It will only work if the corresponding landing page is unpublished.
