Vanity URLs

Hello!

 

I'm trying to create some Vanity URLs on Adobe AEM but for some reason none of them have been working. When I go to test them they all redirect to an error page.

I'm not sure what I could be doing incorrectly that the cause vanity URLs to not work.

 

Thanks!

Hi Maggie,

can you list the list URL to the original page, the JSON ouput for the jcr:content node and the vanity url you are trying? The image you attached does not have a vanity url set.

 

For example on my author instance I just created a vanity URL (The same way Graham described) "/coats" for http://localhost:4502/content/geometrixx-outdoors/en/men/coats.html 

http://localhost:4502/content/geometrixx-outdoors/en/men/coats/jcr%3Acontent.tidy.json

{ "jcr:primaryType": "cq:PageContent", "jcr:mixinTypes": [ "cq:LiveSync", "cq:PropertyLiveSyncCancelled" ], "jcr:createdBy": "admin", "jcr:title": "Coats", "cq:catalogBlueprint": "/content/catalogs/geometrixx-outdoors/en/base-catalog/men/coats", "cq:propertyInheritanceCancelled": ["sling:vanityPath"], "cq:template": "/apps/geometrixx-outdoors/templates/page_sidebar", "jcr:created": "Mon Nov 30 2015 15:21:50 GMT+0000", "cq:lastModified": "Tue Dec 22 2015 16:18:00 GMT+0000", "sling:vanityPath": "/coats", "sling:resourceType": "geometrixx-outdoors/components/page_sidebar", "cq:commerceType": "section", "cq:lastModifiedBy": "admin" }

 

So I can access the page at http://localhost:4502/content/geometrixx-outdoors/en/men/coats.html and http://localhost:4502/coats.html

Can you provide an example of a vanity that you are entering into the vanity url field?

Here is an example that worked for me in 6.1:

  1. Go to http://localhost:4502/editor.html/content/geometrixx/en/products.html
  2. Edit Properties
  3. In the General Tab Enter a vanity with the value "/products"
  4. Save
  5. Go to http://localhost:4502/products
