Unable to redirect a category in Magento using URL Rewrites -


been banging head past few hours :)

i have category (id:46) in magento being deactivated , redirect either category or landing page. i've removed system redirect url rewrite rules , following these guides http://www.aotearoadesigns.net/blog/magento-categories-1-product http://www.magentocommerce.com/wiki/modules_reference/english/mage_adminhtml/urlrewrite/index have far tried following:

id path: category/46 request path: shops/friendly-uri target path: catalog/product/view/id/3111/category/52 (to redirect product)

i have tried setting other category ids, , random values id path, various other urls target path, making category both active , inactive.

nothing seems work. @ same time when try redirect non shop path "any-uri" seems work fine.

any highly appreciated.

first find , delete path category 46 catalog -> manage url rewrite -> search in id path "category/46" delete it. next create re-write catalog -> manage url rewrite -> add url rewrite -> select "custom" dropdown id path: category/46 request path: shops/friendly-url target path: catalog/product/view/id/3111/category/52

if wanted go 1 of pages find target path going cms -> pages , @ url key , use in place of "catalog/product/view/id/3111/category/52" if still can't redirect cms page maybe request path incorrect.

you stated "nothing seems work" didn't list specific issues having can't troubleshoot, can tell steps take. maybe going through , trying these again solve issue. hope helps.
