Change page and project URL

Maglr gives every project and every page its own readable URL, based on the project title and the page title. You can change both in the dashboard: the project URL in the project's settings, and a page URL in that page's settings.

Example: domain.com/projectname/pagename

In this example, projectname is the project part of the URL and pagename is the page part. The domain in front is the domain the project is published on, which usually comes from the project's category. You can't edit the domain in the URL field.

Changing the project URL

To change the URL of a project, edit the Project URL field in the project's settings:

1. Open the project.
2. In the left sidebar, click Project settings.
3. On the Basic information tab, next to Project URL, click Edit.
4. Type the new project part of the URL.
5. Click Save.
6. Publish the project to make the new URL live.

You can also open the project settings from the projects overview: open the project tile's menu and click Settings.

The project URL is also the start of every page URL in the project, so changing it changes the URLs of all its pages too.

To go back to a project URL based on the project title, click Cancel next to the Project URL field (it replaces the Edit button while you edit), then click Save and publish the project.

Changing a page URL

To change the URL of a single page, edit the URL field in that page's settings:

1. Open the project that contains the page.
2. Hover over the page and click the wrench icon (Page settings).
3. On the General tab, next to the URL field, click Edit.
4. Type the new page part of the URL.
5. Click Save.
6. Publish the project to make the new URL live.

Only the last part of a page URL can be changed here. The domain, and for most projects the project part, are shown in front of it and stay as they are.

To go back to a page URL based on the page title, click Cancel next to the URL field in the page settings (it replaces the Edit button while you edit), then click Save and publish the project.

Effects of changing a project or page URL

Changing a project or page URL in Maglr works as follows:

• Publishing: a changed URL only works on the live site after you publish the project. Saving the settings alone doesn't make it live.
• Old links: the previous URL keeps working and sends visitors on to the new URL, so links you already shared don't break. This stops if another project or page in your account later uses that old URL: the link then opens that project or page instead.
• Title-based URLs: until you click Edit, a project or page URL follows its title. If you rename the project or page, its URL changes with it, and the old URL sends visitors on to the new one, as described under Old links.
• Custom URLs: after you click Edit and save your own URL, it stays the same when you rename the project or page.
• Clean-up: Maglr converts what you type into a valid URL. Letters become lowercase, accented letters are replaced by plain ones (é becomes e), spaces and punctuation become dashes, and other symbols are removed or replaced by a dash.
• Duplicates: if the URL is already in use in your account, Maglr adds a number to the end to make it unique.

Frequently asked questions

Do old links still work after I change a project or page URL?

Yes, by default. When you change a project or page URL in Maglr, the previous URL keeps working and sends visitors on to the new URL. The new URL, and the redirect from the old one, go live once you publish the project. The redirect stops if another project or page in your account later uses the old URL: the old link then opens that project or page instead.

Why did my URL change when I renamed my project or page?

A project or page URL follows its title until you set your own. Renaming the project or page then changes its URL. The old URL keeps sending visitors on to the new one, unless another project or page in your account later uses it. To keep a URL fixed, open the project settings (for a project) or the page settings (for a page), click Edit next to the URL field, enter the URL you want, click Save and publish the project.

Why don't I see a Project URL field in my project settings?

There are two reasons the Project URL field doesn't appear on the Basic information tab of the project settings:

• Single-page project: a single-page project has no project URL. Its page sits directly on the domain.
• No domain: if the project has no category, or its category has no domain, the project has no live URL. You'll see a "No live URL" notice instead of the field.

Why does my project or page URL have a number at the end?

Every URL must be unique within your account. When the URL you enter, or the one generated from the title, is already in use, Maglr adds a number to the end. To use a different URL, click Edit next to the URL field in the project or page settings, enter a URL that isn't in use yet, click Save and publish the project.
