    Hello.

    I need to make redirects for many pages on my site (20000 pages).

    Can you please tell me if the Redirection plugin is suitable for this task?

    Does the plugin have any restrictions (limits) on the number of redirect URLs added to the plugin?

    Will this affect the page loading speed of the site?

    It does not have a limit. 20000 will be fine.

    We use your plugin.

    We need to increase the number of redirects.

    If 80000-100000 redirects are used, will your plugin work correctly?

    Can you please tell us the maximum number of redirects your plugin was tested with?

    Your database is the deciding factor. Adding more doesn’t change how the plugin performs.

    I don’t know your use-case but it may be worth considering whether so many redirects is a good thing. Such a large number could suggest other fundamental problems that could be better solved in other ways.

    Thanks for the answer.

    Such a large number of redirects is because a large site is transferred to WordPress from another platform that had a different URL structure. Therefore, we cannot do without a 301 redirect. When search engines glue links, we will disable most of the redirects.

    Sure, but if there is a pattern to the change (generally there is) then you could achieve it with a regular expression. That is the usual method of transferring a site.

    Thanks for the advice.

    We have seen this functionality.

    Unfortunately, due to the fact that images were stored mixed up on the old platform, but WordPress sorts them strictly by upload date, it is very difficult to find a match for each file.

    /wp-content/uploads/2021/02/38953756.jpg

    And we ourselves want to get rid of the chaotic storage of images and give them a system sorting (by date).

    Thanks again for your plugin and your answers!
