Good plugin

PLugin is good. Redirects work. Would better if menu not in main sidebar but under Settings

Kudos, sir!

Perfect. No hassle, no strings attached, and works even redirecting things that cPanel’s Redirect refused to.

Places a redirect option right in the page’s editing view. I typically use this as a work-around for placeholder pages. When I want a page link to appear in a menu, but want it to redirect elsewhere.
