Redirect the Mysites request to another site in SharePoint 2013

Question

In SharePoint 2013, I am facing an issue when clicking on the User id, it redirects to MySite url:

https://mysites.example.com

Currently Mysites is not working and users are getting error message. Therefore is it possible to redirect any request that comes to mysites to another page (underconstruction.aspx)?

Answer 1

Whenever I come under such requirement I always select the simpler and easy way to achieve it.

• Just navigate to the MySite
• Edit the page
• Keep Content Editor WebPart
• Write following JS code <script> window.location="http://UnderConstructionPageUrl"; </script>
• Save the page

Once the MySite is ready just go and delete this Content Editor WebPart.

I wish it could help you or inform me if you need some other approach.
