Update Notice

In version 3+ I’ve changed the database handling of storing the post meta data.
This results in that you have the visit the backend once after updating the plugin.
The function maybe_update() will handle the transition from the old structure to the newer one.
There shouldn’t be any problem updating the plugin, if so please contact me!

Installation Instructions

  • Put the plugin file in your plugin directory and activate it in your WP backend.
  • Go to edit a page
  • Scroll down to ‘Redirector’ meta box
  • Select a WordPress page of you installation or enter a valid URL or select the ‘first child page’

Where can I get support or report bugs?

Please use the github to report bugs or add feature requests!

How can I activate Redirector for other post types beside pages?

Simple add the post type support for it via add_post_type_support( 'post', 'redirector' )

2020, fresh Wordpress, and still works!

It creates option sections in Gutenberg, which makes the plugin usable both for admins and customers.

Still works great with 4.7.4
