# Feature: Remove 404 after adding

 * Am I correctly in remembering that the “remove 404 after adding” was an optional
   feature, and now is performed automatically (without the checkbox to turn on/
   off)?
 * It is a good feature, but I like to remove 404s manually after creating a regex
   I’m satisfied with, without my trial & error regexs wiping things I still may
   need.
 * (Many thanks for re-adding the “Delete matching search results” feature.)

 * There is a checkbox when adding redirects from the 404 page. It is not enabled
   by default.

 * Sorry, it seemed like 404 records were being deleted on creation of a redirect
   on the Redirects page, but I can’t seem to replicate it.
 * One thing I’m not imagining, though, is that I can no longer sort columns.

 * Sortable columns were fixed in 2.9.2
