Redirects for Elementor Free

301 redirects, 410 pages and a 404 log, saved with Ajax.

Overview

What Redirects does

Redirects sends visitors and search engines from an old address to a new one, marks removed pages as gone and keeps a log of addresses that were not found. Every change saves at once, without reloading the page. The free plugin has exact address redirects; Bright Addons Pro adds patterns, conditions, automatic redirects and CSV import and export on the same screen.

Features

What it can do

  • 301, 302, 307 and 308 redirects, and 410 Gone for pages you removed for good.

  • Add, edit, switch on or off and delete redirects without reloading the page.

  • Hits and last use for every redirect, with Reset hits.

  • 404 Log of addresses that were not found, with a Redirect it button.

  • Settings to ignore upper and lower case, the slash at the end and tracking query strings.

  • Works with or without Elementor, and stores no IP addresses.

  • Pro: starts with, wildcard and regular expression matching, with $1 in the new address.

  • Pro: conditions (login, role, device, referrer), slug change redirects and CSV import and export.

Use cases

When to use it

Site redesign

Point every old page address to its new page, so links and search results keep working.

Fix broken links

Open the 404 Log, click Redirect it and type the right page.

Removed products

Mark products you will never sell again as 410 Gone, so search engines drop them.

Moved blog folder

With Pro, send /blog/* to /news/$1 with one wildcard redirect.

Setup

How to set it up

A few steps from adding the feature to a finished result.

  1. Go to Bright Addons > Redirects (Bright Addons Pro > Redirects in Pro).

  2. Type the Old address (source), for example /old-page/.

  3. Type the New address (target), a page of your site or a full address.

  4. Pick the Type: 301 for a permanent move, 302 or 307 for a temporary one, or 410 Gone.

  5. Click Add redirect. It works at once.

  6. Check the 404 Log tab now and then and redirect the addresses visitors still try.

FAQ

Questions and answers

Does the free plugin include redirects?

Yes. Exact address redirects, 410 pages, the 404 log and the settings are free. Pro adds patterns, conditions, slug monitoring and CSV import and export.

Which type should I use?

Use 301 when a page moved for good. Use 302 or 307 for a short time, and 410 when a page is gone and has no replacement.

Can I import redirects from another plugin?

With Bright Addons Pro, yes: upload a CSV file with source, target and code columns on the Import and Export tab.

Does the 404 log store personal data?

No. It stores the address, the page the visitor came from, the number of hits and the last time.
