Is it possible to redirect a deleted topic so that the user gets to another page instead to the missing page-view?

e.g. `t/xxx` to `t/yyy`

I have tried the redirect function but it doesn’t seem to work (although it works for redirecting a deleted category to a tag). I.e.

`c/66` to eg. category\_id `2` works.
