Title: 301 Redirects & 404 Error Log Author: WebFactory Published: ഏപ്രിൽ 8, 2015 Last modified: ഡിസംബർ 2, 2025 --- Search plugins ![](https://ps.w.org/301-redirects/assets/banner-772x250.png?rev=2109136) ![](https://ps.w.org/301-redirects/assets/icon-256x256.png?rev=2108949) # 301 Redirects & 404 Error Log By [WebFactory](https://profiles.wordpress.org/webfactory/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/301-redirects.1.05.zip) * [Details](https://ml.wordpress.org/plugins/301-redirects/#description) * [Reviews](https://ml.wordpress.org/plugins/301-redirects/#reviews) * [Development](https://ml.wordpress.org/plugins/301-redirects/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/301-redirects/) ## Description A perfect plugin for **creating a new site from an old site** or changing the domain name, and managing all of the redirects and broken URLs by using redirection. Find the link to 301 Redirects in the main Settings menu. 404 error log can be found on the same page, and on the admin dashboard. 301 Redirects plugin creates a new table in the WP database called ‘WP_PREFIX_ts_redirects’ that stores all of your redirect rules and redirections. On plugin deactivation the table is not deleted. When you delete the plugin then the redirection table is deleted forever. **Why is the 404 error log limited to the last 50 errors?** By default, the 404 error log is limited to the last (chronologically) fifty 404 errors. Since the 404 log doesn’t use a custom database table for storage but rather an array saved in WP options, 50 is a safe number that ensures the 404 log works on all sites, that it doesn’t take up too much space in the database and that it doesn’t slow down the site. The code imposes no limits on the log size and you can easily overwrite the default limit by using the _301\_redirects\_max\_404\_logs_ filter or by using the following code snippet to raise the limit to 200: ``` add_filter('301_redirects_max_404_logs', function($log_max) { return 200; }, 10, 1); ``` **GDPR compatibility** We are not lawyers. Please do not take any of the following as legal advice. 301 Redirects does not use any 3rd party services or CDNs. It does create a 404 error log which saves the following info when a non-existing (404) page is opened: timestamp of the event, URL of the 404 page, user agent based on the user agent string from the user’s browser. No IP related data or any other identifiable user data is saved or processed. Based on that, we feel it’s GDPR compatible, but again, please, don’t take this as legal advice. ## Screenshots * [[ * Just add title, section, old link & new link to redirect URLs. ## FAQ ### How to disable this plugin?

The paid version is a must! The log is incredibly useful it tells you countries, browsers, agent types and traffic types. Most redirect plugins just allow you to fix broken URLs, but this one lets you see what’s really happening. These are my suggestions for plugin improvement. – Add a way to whitelist admins.- When a tag is applied to a redirect, this should also populate in the 404 Log tab. – Create another data field on the top menu for bot traffic that isn’t direct website-related. This might be harder to program but it would be nice to quickly sort through malicious bots activity vs broken images/links. For example if you have 83 404s in 24 hrs and 51 redirects in the last 24 hours your left with 32 misc bots. It would be awesome if this had its own tab so its easier to sort what’s good/bad. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/dc17c7129099eb9884fa3ac65243052001fad08bb8dd4923f3d72f83cf76dec4? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Solid basic plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/solid-basic-plugin/)󠁿 [jasontlp](https://profiles.wordpress.org/jasontlp/) ഓഗസ്റ്റ്‌ 11, 2023 Functional enough plugin and easy to use. Pretty aggressive about upgrades and actively pushes toward the higher tiers of subscription though – no way to download logs, or filter by date, or any of the things a more experienced user would want to do. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/419805d5b707f0e0e11c7f9f94ad648fa2458562b4f5034a840c69f8be602161? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[semi usefull](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/semi-usefull/)󠁿 [niwieder](https://profiles.wordpress.org/niwieder/) ജനുവരി 11, 2022 URLS cannot be exported via the backend.
