Add a route to a page
- Navigate to the Pages screen in the side menu. 
- Ensure a task is selected.  
- Select the page you wish to add routes to. 
- Open the Settings tab.  
- The page’s actual route appears on the left side. You can add new routes to the page by selecting Add new routing.  
- Enter the URL and the routing type, then press Save.  
- The route appears in the grid on the right half of the page. This displays all the URLs that will link to the page. 
- Routes can be edited and deleted from this grid. 
Add a route to an external site
- Navigate to the Routing Manager screen under Settings. 
- Ensure a task is selected.  
- Note that in the first tab, route to pages are displayed. They can’t be edited from here, but if you click on a row you can go straight to the page settings tab where the routes on each page can be edited. 
- Select the External redirect tab.  
- Click Add new route.  
- Enter the details for the route and press Save. 
- The route appears in the grid. 
- After publishing, any user who accesses this path in the published website will be redirected to the external page.  
- External redirects can be edited and deleted from the grid. 
- Note that routes to external sites can only be redirects and not rewrites. 
Set up a static URL on a media item
- Navigate to the Media library screen under the Library menu. 
- Ensure a task is selected.  
- When you select a media item, its details appear in a pane on the right of the screen. 
- Enter a Static route for the media item and click Save static route.  
- After the site is published, users can access the media item by going to this path on the published site. 
- There is no routing type for media items because they are effectively all rewrites. 
- Static routes can also be viewed from the Media items tab of the Routing manager.
