Overview
The Redirect extension allows you to add unlimited links to your Paymenter navigation menu. Each link can point to an internal path or an external URL, and all links redirect immediately when clicked. Perfect for organizing documentation, blogs, support pages, or any custom destinations.

Links are fully editable in the admin panel, and the extension ensures compatibility with Paymenter's routing system to prevent errors.

All links are instantly added to your Paymenter navigation bar with just a few clicks, making it quick and effortless to customize your menu.
You can easily edit, reorder, or remove links at any time through the admin panel.
Adding both internal and external links takes only seconds, so you can keep your navigation organized without hassle.
This extension keeps your menu clean and user-friendly, ensuring visitors can always find the right destination.
