# See also: _includes/redirect.njk
#
# This file does hijinx with the "pagingation" system to generate many small pages from one set of data...
# and uses that do to redirects from some URLs to others.
# We use this to try to keep old links working.
#
# There's limited power to this approach (it only works for specific pages listed; it can't glob),
# but those are limitations inherent to an approach that works via static site gen, rather than via server configuration.
# The related upside of an approach that works via static site gen is the portability.
pagination:
data: redirects
size: 1
alias: redirect

# Add your redirection tuples to this list!
redirects:
- {"from": "/about/get-started.html", "to": "/about/get-wpe.html"}
- {"from": "/code/", "to": "/about/get-wpe.html"}

# The "permalink" attribute determines where the output page will be located.
permalink: "{{ redirect.from }}"

# The "redirect" layout just has a small html header with the meta tags that do redirection.
