redirecting a parked domain

I'm trying to redirect our old domain to our new one but it doesn't seem to be working. I have parked 'https://www.stlaurencefrodsham.org/' and have set up a redirect to 'http://www.slfchurch.org/' but nothing has changed.
What am I doing wrong?

Hello,

Thank you for your question about redirecting a parked domain. A parked domain is basically one already pointing to another domain. I was checking on this and found out that the managed redirect option in the Parked Domain interface (called Aliases in the new Paper Lantern interface), creates 301 re-directs. 301 Redirects are important for search engine purposes. This lets people know that you have moved to a new address.

Gratefully,
Arn
