Previously, it was possible to create problematic redirects such as only adding or removing a trailing slash (for example /branda → /branda/). These types of redirects can cause redirect loops and break navigation.
New validation has been added to:
Check URLs when creating individual redirects.
Validate URLs during bulk redirect imports.
This stops invalid redirect patterns (like just adding/removing a slash) from being created.
Benefits for you
Reduced risk of redirect loops that take shoppers in circles or break pages.
Safer bulk redirect imports during migrations, rebrands, or URL clean‑ups.
More stable SEO and user experience after URL structure changes.
