Redirect a SharePoint site by using the Content Editor Web Part - SP2010

Today one user came up with the requirements that he wanted to redirect his current site to different site collection. This seems to a normal requirement for everybody and can arise at any time.

I have resolved that issue with the use of metatag and thought to share with all of you as how I resolved it.

Please refer the following the following line of code that you need to use it for the redirection purpose.

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="2;URL=http://sharepoint2007/sites/contentmodification">




Where you need to use it?
-Open the site where you need to set up the redirection
-site actions
-edit page
-add the content editor WebPart
-Give the reference of this file.

You must be wondering what is meant by reference?
-Created any document library or use the existing one
-Copy the redirection script/line in a notepad
-Upload this notepad in a document library
-click on the notepad direct and copy the link from the browser.
-Go back to the site where you have added the content editor WebPart
-Enter the link inside the WebPart which will take the reference of that notepad.

That’s it. You are done with redirection.

If you have any queries/questions based on the same then please let me know, Thank you.
