RB Links Redirection

Deskripsyon

📄 Details | 📖 Documentation

RB Links Redirection sends old and broken addresses to the right page. Add a redirect in seconds, see which links lead nowhere in the 404 log, and never lose a visitor when you rename a page.

Redirects

• 301, 302, 303, 307 and 308 redirects, and 410 Gone for pages removed on purpose
• Four kinds of rules: the exact address, addresses that start with or contain a text, and regular expressions with $1, $2 in the target
• Redirect to a post: pick a post or page as the target, and the redirect follows it even when its address changes
• Letter case and a trailing slash do not matter: /Old-Page/ and /old-page are the same address
• The query string goes along (/old?utm_source=mail → /new?utm_source=mail), so campaign tracking survives
• Hit counter and the time of the last hit for every redirect
• Test an address before you save: see exactly where a visitor would go
• Enable, disable and delete redirects one by one or in bulk; search and filter the list

Automatic redirects

• A post’s address changes — a new slug, a new parent page, a different permalink date — and the old address keeps working with a 301 to the post
• Subpages move with their page: one rule covers the whole branch
• Changing the address back never makes a loop: the old redirect is removed

404 log

• Every address that ends in “not found”, once, with hits, last visit and where visitors came from
• One click turns a dead link into a redirect; fixed addresses are marked
• Browser noise (favicon, touch icons) is left out; old entries are forgotten after a number of days you choose
• Optionally send every other 404 to the home page or an address of your choice

Import and export

• CSV in both directions: source, target, code, match_type, enabled, note
• Importing the same file twice adds nothing twice

For developers

• rb_redirection_add( '/old', '/new', 301, array( 'origin' => 'my-plugin' ) ) and rb_redirection_find( '/old' )
• Actions rb_redirection_added, rb_redirection_before_redirect; filters rb_redirection_capability, rb_redirection_ignore_404
• REST API under rb_redirection/v1

Fast: exact addresses are found by an index in a single query, pattern rules are cached. Works on Multisite — every site has its own redirects.

Works with Duplicate Post RB: when its cleanup removes duplicate posts, their addresses can redirect to the post that stays.
