Best way to redirect all traffic to a page?

[cjx2240]

I've made a temporary new page on a new template, I want to redirect all traffic to this for a while, whilst making the url just be "/", what's the cleanest way to do this please?

@cjx2240, I'm not sure if this is the best way, but hey it works.

Put this in your /site/ready.php

wire()->addHookBefore('Page::render', function (HookEvent $e) {
    // requested page (not the one being rendered)
    $page = $e->page;

    // skip admin pages
    if (strpos($e->input->url, $e->config->urls->admin) === 0) return;

    // force redirect to homepage
    if ($page->id != 1)  {
        $e->session->redirect('/');
    }
});

And in your home template, put this at the beginning

<?php namespace ProcessWire;

$splashPage = $pages->get(1353);
echo $splashPage->render();
return $this->halt();

Thanks @abdus that looks great. Actually I was in a rush and I decided I would have to accept having a "/holding-page" and just used $session->redirect() but if I get a chance I will definitely change to this so I can be on "/"

I used this for a while and it was very helpful. But it isn't working for me anymore, has anything changed in a recent PW update that would stop the ready.php hook above working?
