Features

The feature list from the plugin's own readme on WordPress.org, trimmed to the essentials.

  • Redirect 404 to Homepage or Any URL – send all 404 errors to your homepage, a landing page, a category, or an external site
  • 404 Error Log – every broken URL recorded with a hit counter, referrer, and first/last seen timestamps
  • SEO-Friendly 301 Redirects – permanent redirects that pass link equity, with a 302 temporary option when you need it
  • Fix Google Search Console 404 Errors – resolve “Not found (404)” and soft 404 reports with proper redirects
  • One-Click Enable / Disable – toggle redirects and logging independently, without deactivating the plugin
  • Quick Page Select – pick any published page from a dropdown instead of typing a URL
  • CSV Export – download your full 404 log for analysis in Excel or Google Sheets
  • Top 404 Errors Widget – your five worst broken links, right on the settings screen
  • Privacy-Friendly Logging – no IP addresses, no user agents, no personal data stored
  • Self-Limiting Log Table – hard-capped at 1,000 rows, so a bot scan can never bloat your database
  • Smart Exclusions – feeds, sitemaps, robots.txt, REST API and cron requests keep their real 404 status
  • Skip Files & System Paths – missing images, scripts, fonts and documents keep a real 404 instead of being redirected
