Redirect question using special characters

16 years 7 months ago #2090 by mrmckeen
I searched the forum and could not find this so sorry in advance if someone has already asked.

I am moving the content around in my site and I am using the redirect feature (great by the way!).    Here is my question:  some of the url's have special characters.  For example instead of the : it will be %3A.  In Google the url shows with the : instead of the %3A.  Should I do a redirect for both options?

Example:

pet/dog/finding_help:_the_easy_way  ->  dog/health/finding_help:_the_easy_way

-and-

pet/dog/finding_help%3A_the_easy_way  -> dog/health/finding_help%3A_the_easy_way

Thanks!

The first redirect should work for both options.
