Matrix asset links
Laura Scholey
Hello. I just had a scenario where we change the 'book a call' page on the site - I needed to create an entirely new page then ensure all links to the old book a call page were going to the new page. I created a redirect and unpublished the old page, but realised that the redirect was not working for most of the links because of the way the link was added on the page; the links were directing to a matrix asset and not 'external URL'. I may be missing something and there might have been an easier way to do this, but this took me a few hours to fix.
It would be great if there was a way to redirect an asset - is that possible? So, in a single action, we would change any links to the old page asset and replace it with the new one.

Agree. I raised a similar idea around being about to replace references to an asset ID with another asset idea here (https://squizpm.canny.io/squiz-dxp/p/allow-replacement-of-asset-references-in-matrix).
