Of course we can do this through RegEx like in this example but you have to admit that it’s rather time-intensive and that most users of the plugin wouldn’t know the first thing about setting up a RegEx expression.
I totally agree with @sgastevep. A checkbox for this feature would be awesome.
+1 for a case-insensitive checkbox!
This would be a fantastic option. It’s pain the butt trying to come up with all the various why any one person can type something in.
Another +1
+1000!!! This burns me on a regular basis. I LOVE this plugin but the case sensitivity is certainly a Pain.
I’m not sure if my option is the best (especially since it involves hacking the core code of the plugin which would be lost on update) but it seems to be working and it might help some of you guys out, this is what I did…

Looking for:
function matches( $url ) {
$this->url = str_replace( ' ', '%20', $this->url );
$matches = false;
Changing to:
function matches( $url ) {
$url = strtolower($url);
$this->url = str_replace( ' ', '%20', $this->url );
$this->url = strtolower($this->url);
$matches = false;
If you want this case insensitive check the ‘Regex’ option and enter the Source URL with a (?i) in the front:
(?i)/Ultraspecial-Systems\.html
As it is an regular expression now some characters like ?, ., [, ], (, ), {, }, ^, $ may have a special meaning and should all be prepended with a backslash like '\.' in the above example.
+1 for this option. Any chance it will be added?
