[Redirect API] drupal_goto() and 301 permanent redirect.
Hello, How can I combine a drupal_goto() with a permanent redirect? I am creating a small phpbb_redirect module to go together with phpbb2drupal.module. The latter import the phpBB forum into Drupal, the former should redirect incoming links to the new Drupal forum. I would like to notify the search engines that the change is permanent. I know how to make a permanent redirect with php/HTML, but I don't know how to combine this with drupal_goto(). thanks for your help, Augustin. -- http://www.wechange.org/ Because we and the world need to change. http://www.reuniting.info/ Intimate Relationships, peace and harmony in the couple. http://www.gnosis-usa.com/ Revolutionary Psychology, White Tantrism, Dream Yoga... http://www.masquilier.org/ Condorcet, Approval alternative, better voting methods.
You can do that in the .htaccess file, you don't need drupal. Or you can do that with PHP: Redirect in PHP <? Header( "HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently" ); Header( "Location: http://www.new-url.com" ); ?> introfini -----Original Message----- From: development-bounces@drupal.org [mailto:development-bounces@drupal.org] On Behalf Of Anguo Sent: Wednesday, June 14, 2006 12:28 PM To: development@drupal.org Subject: [development] [Redirect API] drupal_goto() and 301 permanentredirect.

no, I need access to the database.

I said I know how to do a redirect in php. I would like to know how to do it the 'Drupal Way' (drupal_goto() handles aliases, etc...).

Since drupal_goto() outputs the Location header and terminates script execution, just set the 301 header before calling it: header('HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently'); drupal_goto(...); -- Arto Bendiken | arto.bendiken@gmail.com | http://bendiken.net/
