 * I updated Redirection today, from an older version I’m not sure of. Any rule 
   I edited or created today since the update is not working, but older ones I haven’t
   touched are ok. The new rules added are simple ones (no regex) that are just 
   meant to point one page to another on the same domain. Rules created/edited today
   aren’t getting logged, while testing the older rules logs ok. Is this something
   that could be server related? If so, what do I ask my host to check?

 * Do you know approximately how old the previous version was? Are we talking a 
   few versions back, or years?
 * It’s hard to say what’s wrong without more information. If you can provide an
   actual example of a redirect that isn’t working that would be helpful. If you
   don’t want to post that publicly then you can email it to me (click on my name
   from your plugin page and submit via the contact form)

 * Thanks for the reply John. My old version was 2.5. Just to see, I uploaded my
   backup Redirection folder (but did not restore my database backup) and it doesn’t
   work, so the issue doesn’t seem to be the files. I also updated to to 2.6.6 today.
   I’m on WordPress 4.7.5.
 * My host moved the website to a new server in February or so, and I’ve experienced
   some weird little issues since the move so my assumption is that it’s not a server
   that’s tailored to WordPress (yet), but I have created redirects since the move,
   so I figured I should start with plugin support before going to the server admin.
 * I’ll email you sample links in a sec. Thank you.

 * To add to this, the problem turned out to be that the source URLs referred to
   files that still existed, and the server was sending the files before letting
   WordPress run.
 * Deleting the files solved the problem.
