Pm Redirect - PrestaShop [1.6, 1.7, 8.x, 9,x]

PM Redirect - manual URL redirects for PrestaShop

PM Redirect is a practical module for PrestaShop 8.1+ and 9.x that allows you to quickly create manual redirects for any URL in your online store. It helps you safely move old product URLs, category URLs, CMS pages, landing pages, module pages, and custom pages to new locations without editing server configuration manually.

The module supports 301, 302, 303, 307, and 308 HTTP status codes, so you can choose the right redirect type for each scenario: a permanent URL change, a temporary marketing action, a campaign transition, or more technical cases where preserving the original request method matters.

Key benefits

• keep your URL structure organized after store changes
• protect traffic and links pointing to old addresses
• manage redirects quickly from the back office
• gain better control in multilingual and multistore environments
• use a lightweight exact-match mechanism without unnecessary front-office load

Module features

• manual redirects for relative paths and full URLs
• support for 301, 302, 303, 307, 308 redirects
• redirects for products, categories, CMS pages, module pages, and custom URLs
• multistore support: assign a rule to a selected shop
• multilingual support: one rule for all languages or separate rules for a specific language
• match with or without query string
• hits counter increased each time a rule is triggered
• activate or deactivate rules without deleting them
• URL normalization and trailing slash tolerance
• protection against simple redirect loops
• redirect list with filtering and a convenient add/edit form

How it works

The administrator enters a source URL and a target URL, selects the redirect type, and decides whether the rule should include the query string. When a visitor opens the old address, the module intercepts the front-office request and redirects the user to the new URL with the correct HTTP status code.

PM Redirect is especially useful when changing product URLs, reorganizing category structures, updating landing pages, migrating CMS content, ending temporary campaigns, or handling language-specific redirects in multilingual stores.

Performance and predictability

The module was designed as a lightweight MVP focused on stability and predictable behavior. It uses exact URL matching after normalization, without regex or wildcards, works only for GET and HEAD requests, and performs only the lightweight operations needed to find an active rule.

Who is it for

This is a great solution for stores that want fast and convenient redirect management without editing server configuration files. The module works well for both small stores and larger projects with multiple languages, shops, and marketing campaigns.
