hi support,

i'm moving pages from a site to the new site using sp transfer ... some of the articles now have new ID's ..

but the alias is preserved ... if i'm exporting the sef404 url info ... and planning on importing it ...

does the import get integrated, will it be associated to the articles that have been moved? using ID, or alias, or other information?

will it overwrite, my new sites sef404 info if i have been using sef404 in both locations, i can't seem to find these answers.

let me know

Hi

I don't know. This entirely depends on what SP Transfer is doing. If you just copy over the sh404SEF database tables, then of course the IDs will not be updated.
sh404SEF has no provision to do that sort of transfer.

If SP tranfer does not adjust the ids in sh404SEF database, you can simply install sh404SEF on the new site, use exactly the same settings, and the URLs created should be the same, with maybe a few exceptions, but very rare. You would also have to recreate any URL that you manually customized.

It's harder if you had some custom titles, descriptions, etc, because these needs to have the same ids. If SP Transfer do not adjust the ids there as well, you will have to re-enter them.
