Manage historical custom URLs
Review old tree addresses and retire only those you no longer need.
Overview
Renaming a custom slug can leave earlier addresses active in parallel. This protects existing shares from breaking after a rename.
Review an old address
- Open historical URLs
In the Link Tree composer, inspect the historical custom URL list.
- Check external uses
Look for that address in bios, campaigns, QR codes, and documents before removing it.
- Retire only if intended
Read the permanent-retirement confirmation and proceed only when the old URL should stop working.
After retirement
The address returns 410 Gone permanently and cannot be reused. Publishing another revision or restoring a tree does not make the retired alias available again.
Availability and access
Availability depends on your organization access and assigned permissions.
