How can I change Magento contacts page URL from /contacts to contact-us.html?

Thanks for any advice.

  1. In the Catalog menu click on URL Rewrite Management.
  2. Click the Add URL Rewrite button.
  3. Choose to add a Custom type.
  4. Enter "contacts" for ID Path and Target Path.
  5. Enter "contact-us.html" for the Request Path.
  6. Click the Save button.

  • I tried to add rewrite step by step - still getting 404. What might cause the problem? – arekstasiewicz Dec 13 '12 at 16:19
  • I cannot think of anything definite, it's usually reliable. Perhaps you need to clear the cache, or maybe you accidentally got some of the fields mixed up. – clockworkgeek Dec 13 '12 at 22:36
  • As you said - probably I mixed up the fields. I've add rewrite once again and it works. Thanks! – arekstasiewicz Dec 14 '12 at 15:22
  • Worked well for me. I couldn't figure out why it was still 404'ing until I re-read the answer - I was putting "contacts" into the Request Path and not the Target Path (as Magento lists the fields in the order of ID Path, Request Path, Target Path). – Thomas Harding Nov 16 '17 at 14:03

The 'proper' way would be to create a small module similar to the below;

app/etc/modules/Organisation_Module.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
    <modules>
        <Organisation_Module>
            <active>true</active>
            <codePool>local</codePool>
        </Organisation_Module>
    </modules>
</config>

and...

app/code/local/Organisation/Module/etc/config.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
    <modules>
        <Organisation_Module>
            <version>0.0.1</version>
        </Organisation_Module>
    </modules>
    <frontend>
        <routers>
            <contacts>
                <use>standard</use>
                <args>
                    <module>Mage_Contacts</module>
                    <frontName>contact-us.html</frontName>
                </args>
            </contacts>
        </routers>
    </frontend>
</config>

Upload your files, clear your cache and you're good to go.

Specifically must be

New Url in ID Path and Target Path. Old Url in Request Path

Have you tried changing the URL stub?
