Hi, Is there any way to remove /Pages from URL.Currently, my page URL is “.com/pages/about-us” i want to change to “.com/about-us”.I tried URL redirect method Navigation settings and edit the code from theme.liquid to like this, {% if template contains 'collection' and current_tags %} <meta name="…

Hi, there! Lisa here from the Social Care Team. The navigation redirect will not help with what you’re trying to achieve by removing ‘pages’ in your URL. Please try the instructions in this document here to update the path to the target URL. When you provide a full URL as the value of the path pro…

Hi Lisa, Is there a way to add/edit the manual redirect to a current theme redirect.json file? Usually I am in the code backend of our theme and make additions/mods there. I would be looking to add: { “redirect”: { “path”: “/returns”, “target”: “/pages/returns” } } Thanks!

Disappointing to say the least. Don’t get me wrong - I love Shopify, but there are a fair few …

I also find it crazy that this is an unfixable issue. I was on with chat support asking about this issue and found this thread while I was awaiting a reply. I just started my store on Shopify so I’m definitely going to cancel and request a refund. It is unquestionably sub-optimal to have a longer UR…

Hey @mbrady23 any update on this as I’m having the same frustration and seeing so many users saying the same. My SEO folks are so frustrated with this. @Lizzy can you please confirm if there is anything further on removing the unnecessary /pages/ slash? Thank you!
