 * After reading comments here, and using this plugin for couple of days, I would
   like to share my experience with prioritizing links by ordering. Hope this helps.
 * Problem:
    Lets say I have a search keyword “lotto” to redirect to a page called“
   Lotto”, and another search keyword “lotto results” redirect to a page called “
   Lotto Results”.
 * Solution:
    On the plugin admin page, place the LONGER search keyword FIRST in
   order. The longer search keyword will be picked up first, if it exists, and if
   not the shorter search keyword will be picked up.
 * The plugin has no options for moving entries up or down, so editing entries may
   involve deleting and re-entering them in proper order.
    I would like to make 
   a suggestion for the developers, that would assist this process of ordering entries.
   Suggestion: “Move Up”/”Move Down” buttons next to each entry – to allow moving
   entries up or down (in order/priority).
 * Thanks for this really nice plugin.
 * PS: I need to place 2 entries of search keywords (multiple words) to ensure the
   redirect works for all forms of the url.
 * Example:
 * redirect-entry1: lotto results
    redirect-entry2: lotto-results
 * to catch url of the form:
 * lotto results
    lotto-results lotto+results
 * Being able to use a Wildcard (*) would only require one entry to catch different
   forms of url.
 * redirect-entry: lotto*results
 * This could even pick up words that are seperated by other words or characters.

 * Thanks for the feedback! I totally agree there are some UX issues with the inputs.
   I’m in the process of rebuilding the UI to support some nicer features, drag/
   drop, ordering, etc. I don’t have a timeline for you, but it’s definitely on 
   our radar.
 * Thanks,
    Nick
