Configuration

• Navigate to Site Administration > Plugins > Admin tools > Redirects
• Add rules. Each line should be a redirect rule like [php regex of local moodle URL to redirect from]=>[any URL to redirect to]. E.g. #/my/#=>/course/view.php?id=2
• Enable or disable redirects for administrators

Setup vanity urls using Moodle Error pages

If you wish to use redirects for urls which do not exist, eg /some-vanity-url then your webserver needs to be configured to have Moodle handle error pages. Setup details are here:

https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Error_pages

Backdoor option for Admins

Admins can bypass redirect by adding noredirect=1 parameter to requested URL. E.g. http://moodle.example.com/my/?noredirect=1
