Dynamic value for redirect page property

We're builfing multi country/language sites. On one of the page templates, under initial page properties / Advanced, we set Redirect property to us/english site, for example, /content/site/us/en/homepage.

When creating page for another country / language using that template we would like redirect property to be dynamically  changed to context of that country/lang, for example, /content/site/be/fr/homepage.

 

Thank you

    Hi,

    set this redirect at apache/dispatcher level, no need to process a page for just redirect and make a load on publish instance.

      Hi,

      We can achieve this using event listener when jcr:content node is created/updated event can be triggered 

       

      Ex: https://aemhints.com/2020/11/08/event-listener-in-aem-6-5/

        Thank you,

         

        I was thinking about that but I'm not sure if my use case applies to rewrite on dispatcher level.

         

        For example, if on the dispatcher I got request to redirect to default redirect path which is set on the template level "/content/site/us/en/homepage"

        1. Dispatcher gets url "/content/site/us/en/homepage"

        2. On the dispatcher I need to determine what's my current country/lang site, for example "/be/fr/", is that possible  ?

        3. I need to extract "be/fr" from current context.

        4. Replace, "us/en" with "be/fr"

         

        I'm not sure If got this correct.
