Members of my community often create the same type of questions and topics for discussion.
In this connection, my moderators are transferring these new questions/topics to topics previously created by other users. And for some reason, these topics that have been moved to current topics are displayed here http://prntscr.com/mn8riv and when you click on them https://community.kyivstar.ua/topic/show?tid=26926&fid=19 https://community.kyivstar.ua/topic/show?tid=26684&fid=19 - 404 errors are displayed.

Question. Is it possible to make it so that when clicking on an irrelevant link, a redirect will work to the actual topic to which this or that user comment has been transferred

Thank you.

Hey Alena,

Topics that have been moved, are not supposed to be shown in related topic widget, or in any other search result as a matter of fact.

We fixed this a while ago, however the topics that have been moved before the fix, are not affected. What we had to do is to re-index the older topics again so that they will not be shown in search results and widgets. We ran our magical re-indexing script for your community, and as far as I can see moved topics are removed from 'related topic' page. ☺️

one more http://prntscr.com/mn97zt (https://community.kyivstar.ua/topic/show?tid=26345&fid=29 https://community.kyivstar.ua/topic/show?tid=25995&fid=29)
And there are thousands of such links with 404 errors.
