Installation Instructions
Installation of 404 Redirect is simple:
- Unzip
404-redirected.zip and upload contents to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
- Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress Admin
- Use the
Settings -> 404 Redirected options page to enable desired features.
For the suggested pages feature to work you need to edit your 404.php template file to include the following code:
How long does it take for 404 URLs to start showing up?
As long as the “Capture incoming 404 URLs” option is enabled in the options section, the 404 URLs will show up in the captured list as soon as a visitor hits a 404 page.
Will there be a slow down on my site when running the plugin?
No, there should be no noticeable slow down when running the plugin on your site.
Will this plugin redirect my pages if I change my permalinks structure?
Yes! 404 Redirected records the page/post ID number and looks up the most current permalink before redirecting the user.
Can I redirect all 404’s to a particular page?
No, that’s not what this plugin is for. This plugin is designed to make your visitors experience better by automatically fixing 404 problems caused by typos.
