Option to Apply redirectUrl immediately

[snicoll]

Is there a way to avoid the one sec delay when a redirectUrl is set? I am having mostly empty pages that are used to gather content I've posted elsewhere and going to a blank full detail followed by a redirect is not ideal.

@snicoll You would need to modify this bit of the theme:

anatole/layouts/partials/head.html

Lines 31 to 33 in 800b13d

	{{ if .Params.redirectUrl }}
	<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="1; url={{ .Params.redirectUrl }}" />
	{{ end }}

Simply change the 1 to 0 and the redirect will be almost instantly.

Thanks for the reply. Maybe it's too much but I wonder if externalUrl can be added to control the behaviour. If that is set, that would be an immediate forward, not even showing the page itself.

I also wonder what the rationale is behind redirectUrl actually showing the related page for a second? If the actual content is external (which I believe is when we should be using this), I'd argue we shouldn't be showing the "local" page at all. What do you think?
