Hi emicovi,
yes, I will change it to 301 in 0.5 version that will be released this week.
Hi,
any news about the update?
Hi emicovi,
the redirect issue is fixed in 0.4.6 version.
0.5 version will be released in next few weeks (I need to optmize the code to make the plugin modular).
Hi @mbis, and thanks for developing this great plugin. I’m having an issue with the 301 redirect, though.
In the Permalink Manager / Permalink editor screen, when I add something into the Base & Slug, it doesn’t seem to be making a 301 redirect from the old link to the new one.
For example, I added /social-clips/ into this URL:
https://cysticfibrosisnewstoday.com/2014/09/17/easy-wheezy-teen-skydives-support-cystic-fibrosis-trust/
Which became . . .
https://cysticfibrosisnewstoday.com/social-clips/2014/09/17/easy-wheezy-teen-skydives-support-cystic-fibrosis-trust/
However, if you look, both URLs exist — the original one is not redirecting into the new one.
Is this working as normal, or should the plugin be establishing a 301 redirect between the two?
Thanks!
Hi @bionewsservices
if you are using 0.4.6 or one of later versions the redirection should work and then it is a bug.
In next few days I will complete code refactoring and I will review the part with the redirection filter. It will be also possible to: 1) disable the redirect 2) set 301 redirect 3) set 302 redirect in new plugin options.
Best Regards,
Maciej
Many thanks, @mbis. We are using the 0.4.9 version. Is it also possible that there is a configuration problem on our end that could be causing the problem? Recently, we migrated all of our sites to https://, php 7, and some added security stuff. Could going to SSL or making these changes have impacted the plugin? After all, these changes must have impacted things like permalinks. Any thoughts here?
@bionewsservices, theoretically yes – did it work correctly before the changes? Some plugins may filter wp_redirect() function, so it is not triggered correctly.
Please wait until 0.5 version is released and if it still will not work, I will try to find fix for your particular case.
