# Double slash

 * Hello,
 * When I add a 302 redirect from the root to a certain page, the plugin adds an
   extra slash and with that also a 301 redirect.
 * For example:
    302 / /subpage/
 * Becomes:
    [https://www.domain.com/](https://www.domain.com/) 302 [https://www.domain.com//subpage/](https://www.domain.com//subpage/)
   301 [https://www.domain.com/subpage/](https://www.domain.com/subpage/) 200
 * Not all redirect checkers show this path, but we use [http://redirectcheck.com/](http://redirectcheck.com/)
   because we’ve found that it detects errors that we encounter in Google search
   console more precisely than other redirect checkers.
 * For now I’ve solved it by adding the redirect in the htaccess, but it would be
   very convenient if Redirection handles this correctly as well.
    Just wanted to
   update you about this issue.
 * Thank you!

 * Something else will be adding the slash, not Redirection.

 * Do you know where it could come from?

 * You didn’t give a real URL so it’s impossible to say. Probably WordPress, another
   plugin, or your server.
