How to redirect a portal homepage to another portal homepage

[ritaaudi]

Hi: Can someone please advise how to redirect a portal homepage to another portal homepage. So basically I want users who visit xx.service-now.com/tech to be automatically redirected to xx.service-now.com/sp. What is the best way to do so? Thank you in advance.

Hi Rita ,

If you are using Cms(content management system) then you can use "window.location.replace("xx.service-now.com/sp");"   in your layout used macro . it will redirect to the location you want.

CODE IN XML :

<script>

window.location.replace("xx.service-now.com/sp");

  </script>

Thanks,

Abhishek

Hi Abhishek: Where would I go to update the layout used macro? Thank you.

In left navigation go to sites and click on your homepage.

Once you have your homepage go to layout and modify the code.

Required code is highlighted. Let me know if you have any queries.

Thanks,

Abhishek

Hi Abhishek: I just had to tweak it as follows to allow going to /tech for notification links:

  <script>

    if(document.URL.indexOf('incident.do') == -1)

        window.location = '/sp/';

  </script>

Thank you so very much!! I've been spinning my wheels for 24 hrs on this..
