Jan Piotrowski commented on CB-9768:
------------------------------------
If it isn't permanent, e.g. the old URL will be used for something different,
you should use 302 instead of 301. This will keep the browser from caching
them.
But I think the change for the docs are permanent, so this is a clear case for
301.

> Key: CB-9768
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-9768
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Website
> Reporter: Jan Piotrowski
>
> Lots of old pages (e.g.
> https://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/4.0.0/guide_hybrid_plugins_index.md.html)
> are still listed in Google as they are of course very widespread and linked
> to. The new website obviously recognized these and knows where the new site
> is:
> > It looks like the content has moved here.
> which links to
> https://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/4.0.0/guide/hybrid/plugins/index.html.
> To improve the user experience and also tell Google where it finds the
> correct new version of this page,so it will link to these directly in the
> future, these should automatically be redirected using a 301 Redirect header:
