How Aliases Work

    Keywords: SL description

Aliases are pagenames that automatically refer the user to another page. For example, Ladder is an alias of Shicho. If you visit Ladder you are directly taken to Shicho.

The referred page will list all of its known aliases on the left hand side, and provide edit links for them.

How to create an alias:

Create a new page, and write in its first (and only) line the refered page name inside square brackets. E.g. Ladder contains "[Shicho]" as its text content.

Then set the PageType to "Alias" and your done. After saving the page, try it out once, just to make sure everything works ok.

Note: SL does not support multi-step aliases such as a1->a2->a3. Instead you should make a1 a direct alias of a3. It makes no difference to the user anyway.
