## Description

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.

## Installation

 1. Install and activate the plugin through the WordPress Plugins screen.
 2. Open Redirects in the admin menu. If Manny Wenas SEO is active, look under Manny
    Wenas SEO.
 3. Add a source path and a destination URL, then choose 301 or 302.

## FAQ

### Does this require Manny Wenas SEO?

No. Redirect Manager works independently and shows its own menu when Manny Wenas
SEO is not active.

### Can I import existing redirect rules?

Yes. The Import screen accepts CSV files with source, target, and optional status-
code columns. It recognizes compatible exports from several redirect plugins. Review
skipped rows after the import; regex and query-string rules are not supported.

### Does uninstalling remove my data?

Yes. Uninstalling removes the redirect and 404 log tables. Keep a separate copy 
of your redirect rules before uninstalling.

## Changelog

#### 1.0.2

 * Fixed: the database tables are now verified and, when missing or incomplete (
   for example after files were copied without activation), created or completed
   automatically without losing data. A failure shows an admin notice instead of
   repeated database errors.
 * Removed the repeated Manny Wenas SEO detection notice.
 * Placed Redirect Manager screens under Manny Wenas SEO when its menu is present;
   standalone navigation remains available otherwise.

#### 1.0.1

 * Added CSV import for compatible redirect lists.

#### 1.0.0

 * Initial release.
