Thanks @bmex63 your fix worked a treat 🙂
@bmex63 – That fixed the export issue, but the file that it exports is 0kb, empty. Any thoughts?
@bmex63 wont work anymore? Any fix for it? Thanks in advance…
bmex63 fix still works, tested today with WordPress 3.4.2 and Redirection Version 2.2.13.
You can find the code in the 10th comment of this thread.
I used bmex63’s fix and it works perfectly for me.
I’m using wordpress 3.5 and redirection version 2.2.13
@bmex63’s solution does still work. Don’t know why the developer hasn’t fixed this yet…?
The format of the CSV is:
source | target | hits
/about.htm | /about/ | 0
More specific about bulk redirections can somebody be, pls ? Has somebody tried this lately ?
Has the csv file a header ? How it looks like ? It has one column in csv file ?
So I make one column with this format
http://mydomain.com/something.html|http://mydomain.com/elsehere|
After I imported the CSV file formated like above, I receive this message
“200 redirections were successfully imported” but I can see where and all the URL still not redirected, and I receive 404 .
Why it’s not working ? What’s wrong?
Redirection Export wouldn’t work since there’s a base root url mistake.
all you need to do is replace tools.php?page=redirection.php with just redirection.php
in the redirection.php file, found in the plugin editor.
I’m getting 0 byte file exports, even with the fix on to change the redirection.php location. Any ideas? I’ll post back if I find a solution.
@bmex63’s edit gets the file to download, but (as Devin Walker mentioned above) it’s downloading a 0 byte CSV when trying to export the 404 log for me. I should mention that exporting the WordPress log works fine (not sure why that might be).
I spent a few hours trying to fix the 0 byte issue a few months ago with no luck. We might have to wait for the original developer to publish a fix.
Anyone on here using an alternative plugin worth recommending to others in case redirection plugin has been abandoned?
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/404-error-monitor/ – this plugin exports to CSV upon initial review. It looks decent to me and still logs hits even with a 301 redirect on the 404 to the homepage. I’d say try this if you’re stuck on the Redirection plugin
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/404-error-logger/ – I haven’t tried this one yet but looks very similar to the one above.
Thank you @gerygreen! The simple fix you posted made all exports work.
