Too many redirects broke site

    Hi,

    have been using this excellent plug in for a while now. Added a few new url:s today (I now have 189 redirects active) and this broke my site. It became inaccessible and the browser told me that it was due to many redirects happening when the browser tried to open the url. It said that this can happen when a you open a page that is redirected to open another page that in turn is redirected to open the original page.

    Switching off the plug-in remedies the problem so I know its the plug-in that causes it.

    I’m not too savvy on this thing – is there a way to identify such an “offending” url? I don’t want to delete all my redirects and start all over again. Help would be much appreciated!

    Regards

    Johan

    Hi again!

    I managed to fix it. Somehow I’ve managed to add a “/” in both From and To fields which must have started some kind of loop of the index page itself. My bad.

    Edit: I see now that if you hit the save button without having put anything in the From and To fields they add a new entry with the dreaded “/”. A feature, maybe? 🙂

    Regards
