Redirect pages
in progress
Ryan Johnson
Would be very nice to have automatic suggestion based on this redirect policy ("did you mean...?").
To accomplish this, you need to give every page a unique ID and URL that doesn't depend on the folder structure. Put the page's GUID in the URL.

Critical for our case as well

I think, this feature is especially useful if people are builing up a wiki without knowing upfront the navigation / tree architecture. When the wiki is published, users refer to it using external links (twitter, etc) and when the page is moving during the evolution, it should be accessible under all historic links.

Is this still in progress? Would be extremely useful for our company.

If the Page is a redirect to another page, or to a section of another page, it should already be visible in the search results where the redirect is to. This will make the redirect less confusing.

This would be especially useful if the internal page ID (interlinking pages) were separate from the URL, and you could shift around & rename pages without breaking links to that location on all wiki pages.
IMHO this is a frequent use case: first you write some pages, then you decide the structure is bad and you start shifting around stuff, which (currently) means you have to edit all pages where links to the just remaned or moved page exist.
Can Wiki.js use internal page IDs for internal links instead of physical location to accomplish this?

As a workaround, you can use the <meta http-equiv="Refresh"> tag to redirect a page. Open a page for editing, click on 'Page' for Page Properties, click the 'Scripts' tab. Then enter:
<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="0; url='[link to your page]'" />
This will redirect the page to the link provided. The '0' is how many seconds to wait before redirecting, so you can set this to a positive number to show the page for a short time before redirecting.

Merged in a post:
categorization, distinguish physical location from the virtual paths (multiplied)

for example you have page with 'finding elements in trees - algorithm in java'
without idea of repo with knoweldge you can image that this could be find in different ways:
programming languages/java/data_structures/trees/algorithms
data structures/trees/algorithms/java
programming_topics/complexed_topics/trees/
etc...
so you can link whole new paths to the page, not only one-word messy tags, tags help with searching, but allowing link whole new paths to te same page allow of better browsing of knowledge and different people browse differently, more linked paths helps more people find the same pieces of data in different way.

This feature would be fantastic especially if the breadcrumbs and navigation were to respect the hierarchy of the page instance (or redirect). As a result, it would be possible to navigate the same page content from multiple distinct hierarchies.

Nicolas Giard: Redirection information, should be stored in the file header - where title, description, etc. This will make it more portable.
