# How to create a custom action or redirect?

Read page Custom Action/redirect Script.

# How a REMOTE redirect works

This action works in several steps:

  1. It downloads a page, which you pointed to in URL field.
  2. It takes the content, which is used as an URL for further redirect.
  3. It makes an HHTP-redirect to a new URL.

An example of a page content for REMOTE:

http://site2.com/page123.html

<?php
if (!file_exists('./links.txt')) {
    die('No file links.txt');
}
$content = file_get_contents('./links.txt');
$lines = explode("\n", $content);
$links = array_map(function($line){
  $line = trim($line);
  return empty($line) ? null : $line;
}, $lines);
$links = array_filter($links);
echo $links[rand(0, count($links) - 1)];
?>

At the script directory create a file links.txt with a list of links one per line.
