***This site is on DNN 7***

I want to hide a page so that it is only accessible by the exact page URL. I assume I need to remove a 301 redirect somewhere but I am not sure where to do that in DNN 7. Does anyone know how I can make this work?

You're an MVP!

If you uncheck the "Include in menu" checkbox in the page settings the site is not accessible from the menu. Still, if someone knows the address to it or the page is linked from somewhere else it is accessible for those who have the appropriate permissions (View).

Is that what you mean?

Otherwise, the SEO Redirect Module by 40fingers could be helpful...

Happy DNNing!

I guess you renamed the page and it's still resolving the old url? The previous urls of a page are stored in the TabUrls table and there's no interface for them in DNN 7 AFAIK, there is in DNN 9. So you probably have to manipulate the DB directly

I manually edited that table and now my assumption is that someone would have to go to the exact URL I made for it in order to reach it. Hopefully there are no remaining re-directs that would allow it to be reached otherwise.

Thank you!
