Hello,
Is the problem still there? Because the link is working perfectly here. You must understand WP 404 Auto Redirect to Similar Post only take action when a 404 page is about to be displayed.
It’s technically impossible that the plugin take over an “existing” URL, because the very first rule I check is the function is_404() (https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_404). If is_404() is false, then everything else from the plugin is literally canceled.
My guess is that the URL was actually mispelled, or maybe an another plugin took non-desirated action.
Have you tried to activate Debug Mode and then visit the URL while being logged as admin? If the Debug Console is displayed, can you please paste it here?
Thanks π
I deactivated the plug-in. So it working fine.
If u want I will active for u to test for some time

Hello,
Thank you for the report!
May I ask how do you manage those /go/xxxxxx redirections? Do you use a specific plugin? If so, may I ask which one? It looks like /go/ is not even a post_type.
Hello,
Thank you! I’ll see their code to understand where the problem come from. In the meantime, can you try to edit the WP 404 Auto Redirect to Similar Post plugin?
Edit: /plugins/wp-404-auto-redirect-to-similar-post/wp-404-auto-redirect-similar-post.php Line: 227
Find: add_action('template_redirect', 'wp404arsp_init');
Replace To: add_action('template_redirect', 'wp404arsp_init', 999);
Re-activate the plugin, and try again to reach your URL http://www.checktop10.in/go/592-in-B00LLYZ7G6 please.
I have done changes to what u said.
Now it is working fine.
Thank you.
Will you change it in next update or every time I need to do edit the code after the update?
Hello,
Okay that’s exactly what I was thinking about π
I was already thinking about adding this change, now I’ll surely do it!
Just to let you know, the extra 999 at the end of the action add_action('template_redirect') tells the plugin to execute very late, after all other plugins.
I’ll add it by default in the next patch!
Thank you.
Regards.
