Hi AndresGorzelany - thank you for your reply. I read through those articles but have a few follow-up questions - hoping you can help. I am terribly afraid of losing all my content and design aspects. I have had to rebuild twice already since starting...
How my URL's are today -
Root: http://www.xxxxprop.sharepoint.com
Current Production ready site: http://www.xxxxprop.sharepoint.com/sites/center-intranetWhen I make the Production ready site (on the right) the new Root site, will it's URL change to http://www.xxxxprop/sharepoint.com? Will it keep the design aspects and content, etc. you see below?
- Oct 14, 2021What I would do in this case is to first test with a dummy site so you can be sure of the impact
for example
https://m365xxxxxx.sharepoint.com/sites/dummysite
becoming
https://m365xxxxxx.sharepoint.com/
so you can evaluate the change.- mdcastorenaOct 15, 2021Brass Contributor
Hi AndresGorzelany - is there a way I can simply add my own redirect? i.e., manually point https://m365xxxxxx.sharepoint.com/ to https://m365xxxxxx.sharepoint.com/sites/dummysite ?
