How to redirect when navigating to non existent route

[joshiain]

Previously I would export a load function inside __error.svelte which would contain a redirect back to /.

With the latest changes, there is no longer the ability to use a load function with +error.svelte.

How might I now implement a redirect back to / when a user visits a non existent route?

Can you use goto('/') in +error.svelte?

[joshiain]

As goto doesn't work on the server, this only works if you wrap it in a browser check guard like so:

$: if (browser) {
    goto('/');
}

Seems good thanks! Wonder if there's any drawbacks to this

Is this the official answer to this problem?
