Hello there,

i want to ask how you are switching from the existing domain into a new one.  
Currently we have a short domain (short.tld) and a new longer one with the fullname in it (longerdomain.tld).

I will export my indexed domains by google, redirect them with htacess and in the htacess file i would switch the requested domain to the new one.

My question is there anything done inside kirby to switch correctly?

Thank you ✌
