Reviewed all 50 top 404 URLs from the CSV against `public/_redirects`. Most were missing redirects (likely from the Cloudflare redirect fix earlier this month), not bad targets. ## Summary | Status | Count | Action | |--------|-------|--------| | Already redirected (valid) | 5 | No change needed | | Redirect existed but target was wrong | 1 | Fixed | | Missing redirect | 44 | Added | ## Already working (5 URLs) These had valid redirects in place: - `/aws/integrations/continuous-integration/` → `/aws/ci-pipelines/` - `/aws/integrations/messaging/selfmanaged-kafka-cluster/` → self-managed Kafka doc - `/aws/enterprise/sso/` → `/aws/organizations-admin/sso/` - `/aws/capabilities/extensions/mailhog/` → mailhog extension doc (via splat) - `/aws/capabilities/networking/internal-endpoints/` → internal endpoints doc ## Fixed bad redirect (1 URL) `/aws/capabilities/networking/endpoint-url` was caught by the splat rule and sent to `/aws/customization/networking/endpoint-url`, which does not exist. Added explicit redirects to `/aws/customization/networking/accessing-endpoint-url/` (placed before the splat rules). ## Added redirects (44 URLs) High-traffic examples: | 404 URL | Redirect target | |---------|-----------------| | `/aws/getting-started/help-support/` (318 PV) | `/aws/help-support/` | | `/get-started/` (166 PV) | `/aws/getting-started/` | | `/aws/feature-coverage/` (107 PV) | `/aws/services/` | | `/references/persistence-mechanism/` (69 PV) | `/aws/developer-tools/snapshots/persistence/` | | `/localstack/configuration/` (63 PV) | `/aws/customization/` | | `/aws/enterprise/k8s-operator` (57 PV) | `/aws/customization/kubernetes/kubernetes-operator/` | | `/developer-guide/` (55 PV) | `/aws/` | | `/aws/s3/`, `/aws/sqs/`, `/aws/iam/`, etc. | Corresponding `/aws/services/*/` pages | | `/t/*.html` (3 Discourse URLs) | `https://discuss.localstack.cloud/t/...` | Also added variants for paths like `/integrations/`, `/tools/`, `/ci/`, `/getting-started/api-key/`, contributing subpages, and nested SDK paths (`/aws/connecting/aws-sdks/net/` → dotnet). Build passes with all links valid. After deploy, these 404s should drop off analytics within a few days as Cloudflare picks up the updated `_redirects` file.
