It is possible to have native HTTP redirects for pages moved or renames in Confluence?

How?

One condition: this has to work by default, without having to ask the user to do somethign else after he moves or renames the page.

I was amazes to discored that this basic functionality was not a core feature by design.

According to the docs, all links should update automatically when you move or rename a page. You just have to make sure your links are not web-links that start with http...use Confluence page links instead.

I will test this myself. Still I do think that confluence should be smart enough to fix even web-links. We cannot assume that everyone will insert only internal links when writing wiki pages. I would not even consider this as an enhancement, just a bug.

Sorin, I disagree with you... There should be no expectation that Confluence will keep external links updated.

I would be interested to find out why you disagree.

I've added html macro to the page an put the below in

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>

<h2>Redirect to a Webpage</h2>

<script>
  location.replace("link to the new location")
</script>

</body>
</html>

Long

Unfortunately this is not native HTTP 301 redirect.
