I suspected that might be the case, since we’re playing hot potato with the links. I will play around with Redirection #2 and the link structure, but I’m also just happy with being able to use the alternate links at all : -) You are a life-saver and I appreciate you and all that you do! * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Media Library Assistant] Cleaning up URL queries in paginated gallery pages](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cleaning-up-url-queries-in-paginated-gallery-pages/) * Thread Starter [1ore](https://wordpress.org/support/users/1ore/) * (@1ore) * [2 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cleaning-up-url-queries-in-paginated-gallery-pages/#post-17074492) * So sorry to open this up again, especially so soon. I’ve been having a blast with the new shortcode, but have had one hiccup that I’m not sure how to navigate. I figured I would forward it to you in case you had any insight. * I seem to hit performance issues(?) when several posts from across multiple years are queried by the gallery pagination shortcode. Sometimes the redirection will hang for a few seconds, and then either the white screen of death appears, or the gallery page renders without pagination. Interestingly, this doesn’t occur when the redirection is set as a normal redirection rather than a pass-through one—the normal redirect works like a charm. * I say “performance issues(?)” because as far as I can tell, neither of the plugins exceed the memory that WordPress allots to them. I’m playing with about 10 posts, dated across 5 or 6 years. Most have images attached. * I managed to recreate the issue on my personal website and a testing one (Fresh WordPress installation, default twentytwentythree theme, with just MLA + MLA UI Elements + Redirection as plugins.) I have tried to be conscientious of caching as well, but I’m just now learning how many caches exist outside of my browser one 😅 Not sure how helpful pictures are in this situation, but here’s a screenshot of the testing environment and shortcodes: * ![](https://64.media.tumblr.com/2909c088aded1622ee9fd955e35e118d/636697ee1823c008- 63/s1280x1920/a8f8ca7fe3f28ad6f89f19391c371aaf8d028e65.pnj) * ![](https://64.media.tumblr.com/be1658a70c6c7917975ef1bc9346477d/636697ee1823c008- 22/s1280x1920/6447ca756be325218cdf4508d3d7a6612443fb71.pnj) * Interestingly, things seem to work better when the same number of posts are sorted into a shorter timespan of two or three years. But maybe that’s my imagination? * ![](https://64.media.tumblr.com/88d6d0c30abc033b81e65ca27dba3ecb/636697ee1823c008- fe/s1280x1920/f18107451c11f8be37d7e290b1cc0efb2c4b209c.pnj) * In any case, I realize this is a lot of work for a short string of letters and slashes, so I’m happy to leave them as standard redirects for now. Thank you so much for your time and all that you do! * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Media Library Assistant] Cleaning up URL queries in paginated gallery pages](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cleaning-up-url-queries-in-paginated-gallery-pages/) * Thread Starter [1ore](https://wordpress.org/support/users/1ore/) * (@1ore) * [2 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cleaning-up-url-queries-in-paginated-gallery-pages/#post-17038562) * I have only just installed it, but from what I can tell, it works like a charm! I keep tabbing back and forth between pages and grinning like an idiot. Thank you so much for this, I don’t know where I would be without your help. I kicked some change over to your Chateau Seaview Fund and am very moved that you give so much to strangers on the internet. Thank you! * (Also, just wanted to add this in case someone uses this example plugin and has the same thought that I did. When setting the redirection in the redirection plugin, the landing page will serve the target “?muie_current_archive=”-format URLs, unless you pop open the advanced settings and change the redirect action to “pass-through.” This will retain the source/reformatted URLs in the searchbar even after the page is redirected : -) ) * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Media Library Assistant] Cleaning up URL queries in paginated gallery pages](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cleaning-up-url-queries-in-paginated-gallery-pages/) * Thread Starter [1ore](https://wordpress.org/support/users/1ore/) * (@1ore) * [2 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cleaning-up-url-queries-in-paginated-gallery-pages/#post-17031748) * OK, turns out that day would be today. After much fiddling, I *think* everything is working as it should. * So, the Archive plugin constructs a page with the URL: `http://m0r1bund.local/ moribund-art/?muie_current_archive=post_date%2CY(2021)` * Redirection converts the above URL to the desired URL: `http://m0r1bund.local/ moribund-art/2021/` * ![](https://64.media.tumblr.com/57c143dc7c6b684adb420cbfe5e85071/636697ee1823c008- e0/s1280x1920/a6333cfb4dd6abf04bc8c8edae4a4c9a08ae6022.pnj) * (To keep it simple I decided to target this specific URL, as I haven’t quite gotten regex to cooperate with encoded/decoded URLs yet.) * … And then I have a PHP snippet that converts it back into the original URL, using Redirection’s redirection_request_url filter. * ```wp-block-code add_filter( 'redirection_request_url', function( $url ) {   return 'm0r1bund.local/moribund-art/?muie_current_archive=post_date,Y(2021)'; }, 10, 2 ); ``` * I hope I understood what you were meaning correctly. Learning coding is very “ monkey see, monkey do” for me, so to be honest, I am mystified at how this filter knows when and when not to fire 😅 - This reply was modified 2 years, 8 months ago by [1ore](https://wordpress.org/support/users/1ore/). * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Media Library Assistant] Cleaning up URL queries in paginated gallery pages](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cleaning-up-url-queries-in-paginated-gallery-pages/) * Thread Starter [1ore](https://wordpress.org/support/users/1ore/) * (@1ore) * [2 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cleaning-up-url-queries-in-paginated-gallery-pages/#post-17031446) * Hi there, just wanted to quickly say thank you so much for your help! It really means a lot, especially for a wordpress + PHP greenhorn (: this was extremely helpful in pointing me in the right direction. * Speaking to that, I *think* I have written some PHP that has Redirection and Media Library Assistant talking to each other, but I wanted to spend some more time with it, just to be sure that it’s working properly and that I understand it. As you can see from the lateness of this reply, time has been on a premium lately hahahaha. I’ll be in touch as soon as I can give it another look. Thanks again!
