Manny Wenas Redirect Manager

Inspired by modularity, Manny Wenas introduces Redirect Manager: a focused WordPress plugin built around the Manny Wenas philosophy of no bloat.

Use it as a standalone redirect manager or alongside Manny Wenas SEO. Choose the tools you need, and keep your setup simple.

Manny Wenas Redirect Manager helps you maintain old links when article URLs change. It works on its own. If Manny Wenas SEO is active, the Redirects, 404 Monitor, and Import screens appear under the Manny Wenas SEO menu.

Features:

• Create exact or trailing-wildcard 301 and 302 redirects.
• See redirect hit counts and warnings about redirect chains.
• Review a bounded 404 log and turn a missing URL into a redirect.
• Get a prompt to add a redirect after changing a post or page slug.
• Import compatible CSV redirect lists. Unsupported regex and query-string rules are skipped.

The plugin stores redirects and 404 records in your WordPress database. Uninstalling the plugin deletes these records.

What it does not do

• It does not output SEO metadata or create sitemaps.
• It does not use regex or query-string matching. Redirects match the URL path only, either exactly or with a trailing wildcard.
• It does not automatically redirect all missing pages to the homepage. Only redirects you create or import are applied.
• It does not prevent loops between two or more different wildcard redirects that send visitors back and forth. The Redirects list flags these as “Limit reached; possible loop” so you can correct them.
