The Save Redirect On Delete module gives the functionality for saving redirects after deletion of entity(supported by pathauto module) having some url alias.

Problem:

  1. Created alias for an entity (say a node) and now node/nid is rendered by "abc" (alias for that node)
  2. When the node is deleted, the alias is deleted as well
  3. In the meantime search engines had indexed that link and you have also bookmarked it
  4. Now when they come to the site it shows Page Not found which is not good

Solution:

  • Add a redirect of abc to a pre-defined page for every Entity (say there is a view for every content type) , "abc" will now have an redirect say "events", and it will never show a page not found
