A WordPress admin tool for managing 301 redirect rules.

Description

SM Redirects provides a simple WordPress admin interface for exact-match 301 redirect rules, including status toggles, priorities, hit counts, logs, CSV/JSON import and export, query parameter handling, and case sensitivity controls. It also watches for slug changes on posts, pages, and custom post types, and prompts you to add a matching redirect the moment you save.

Plugin updates are checked automatically against GitHub releases, so new versions show up in the standard WordPress updates screen without a manual zip upload.

Changelog

1.3.0

• Added a slug-change redirect notice: when a published post, page, or CPT's URL changes, a prompt appears directly on the post edit screen — in the block editor immediately after save (no reload needed) and on the next load for the Classic Editor — offering to add a 301 redirect from the old path in one click. Styled to match core WordPress notice conventions (cream background, thin link-style actions), and the success message confirms both the old and new URL.
• Added admin nav submenu items: Browse list, Add redirect, Logs, Settings. Items expand on hover from any admin page and highlight correctly when navigating via the in-plugin tab bar.

• Slug change detection: when a published post, page, or CPT URL changes, an admin notice prompts to add a 301 redirect from the old path with one click. Works with classic editor and Gutenberg REST API saves.
