A perfect plugin for creating a new site from an old site or changing the domain name, and managing all of the redirects and broken URLs by using redirection.
Find the link to 301 Redirects in the main Settings menu.
404 error log can be found on the same page, and on the admin dashboard.
301 Redirects plugin creates a new table in the WP database called ‘WP_PREFIX_ts_redirects’ that stores all of your redirect rules and redirections. On plugin deactivation the table is not deleted. When you delete the plugin then the redirection table is deleted forever.
Why is the 404 error log limited to the last 50 errors?
By default, the 404 error log is limited to the last (chronologically) fifty 404 errors. Since the 404 log doesn’t use a custom database table for storage but rath…
Their support even helped me to create a redirect rule for mass redirection.
Cudos for them:-)
This plugin is my favorite redirect plugin. The paid version is a must! The log is incredibly useful it tells you countries, browsers, agent types and traffic types. Most redirect plugins just allow you to fix broken URLs, but this one lets you see what’s really happening.
These are my suggestions for plugin improvement.
– Add a way to whitelist admins.
– When a tag is applied to a redirect, this should also populate in the 404 Log tab.
– Create another data field on the top menu for bot traffic that isn’t direct website-related. This might be harder to program but it would be nice to quickly sort through malicious bots activity vs broken images/links. For example if you have 83 404s in 24 hrs and 51 redirects in the last 24 hours your left with 32 misc bots. It would be awesome if this had its own tab so its easier to sort what’s good/bad.
Functional enough plugin and easy to use. Pretty aggressive about upgrades and actively pushes toward the higher tiers of subscription though – no way to download logs, or filter by date, or any of the things a more experienced user would want to do.
URLS cannot be exported via the backend. The plugins does what it should, but for people with a bit more experience it offers to less options and there are plugins offering the same and even more.
Simply and helpful!
