@Fabian001 said in Is 301 redirects a deal breaker for Migrating content or moving to new software?:
@vbsk there is quite alot of info that you have mentioned, so correct me if i don't understand the constraints here correctly.
From what i read, if you are able to migrate the content of the forum onto your new site and retain their existing urls, then no redirects are needed.
If you are switching domains, then you can set a sitewide rule via .htaccess file or equivalent to redirect to the new domain.
Essentially, so long as the content is still on your website with no change to URL (or there is a filepath/domain name to forward all redirects to via a few rules), then this should be fairly straightforward.
yes, that is correct

Here is an example of modification:
[www.culturism.net](link url) this is index
and product page
[https://www.culturism.net/concentrate-proteice/dymatize-iso-100-2-2-kg.html](link url)
in the htaccess file I took into account that the main domain is changing and I had another change, I gave up .html
