Managing hundreds of redirects is now faster than ever. Instead of clicking checkboxes one by one, you can click and drag across the grid to instantly select multiple cards.
- Smart Detection: Text selection is automatically disabled while dragging for a smooth experience.
- Visual Feedback: Selected cards highlight instantly, ready for bulk deletion.
Sometimes you need to redirect a URL that already exists as a page (e.g., redirecting your old /contact page to a new separate domain, even if the page still exists).
- Conflict Warning: The plugin detects if a slug is already in use by a Post or Page and warns you.
- Override Mode: Simply check the "Override" box to force the redirect to take precedence over the existing page.
Don't let visitors hit a dead end. Configure exactly what happens when a 404 error occurs:
- To Homepage: The simplest option. Instantly redirects all 404 traffic to your site's home page.
- External URL: Send lost traffic to a specific external help center or partner link.
- Existing Page: Select any page on your site (like a custom "Search" or "Sitemap" page) from a dropdown list to keep users engaged.
- Auto-Cleanup: Switching between these modes automatically cleans up unused database options to keep your site fast.
