not working manager redirects Joomla

In fact it is not. It works, but not as you think.

Firstly, it should be included plug - System - Redirects. Second plug-in works only when the link is included in the 404 !!!, that is, page does not exist.

If you want to redirect the existing link, you will not come out. This is justified on the one hand - the component manager redirects made to painlessly move to the new SEF or even a new site, and track all site links are not working. But what if you just need to send a link to another?
