Hi...

I need to redirect some old url´s to new ones. Everything works fine on my Desktop Computer, but when tried with mobile the redirection doesn´t work. Any Ideas?

Best regards,
Elvis

The URL redirection does not depend on where the request comes from. As long as the New URL is seen in the request this feature kicks in and asks the Joomla! application, through the Joomla! API, to perform a redirection. Barring any Joomla! bug in its API, this redirection works equally in desktop and mobile browsers. In fact, Joomla! sends a simple HTTP 301 Moved Permanently response. I guess there's something in your mobile device or mobile provider preventing redirections?
