Can I remove Shopify's automated /collections direct URL access?

[YogaBear]

Hi all,

I would love to know if I am able to remove or re-direct someone from the collections overview page. 

For example 

yourstorename.com/collections

This brings them to all the collections I have on my store, if they manually key this in. 
Am I able to re-direct this, I've tried some ways but all seems futile.

Hi @YogaBear 

1. In your Shopify Admin go to online store > themes > actions > edit code
2. Find layout > theme.liquid and paste this at the bottom of the file:

<script>
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function() {
// Check if the current URL is the collections overview page
if (window.location.pathname === "/collections") {
// Redirect to your desired URL
window.location.href = "/collections/all";
}
});
</script>

Hey, I was wondering if you could assist me on how to customize the url. For example instead of yourbrandname.com/collections its yourbrandname.com/inventory.
