<p><strong>LinkRail Redirects, 404 & Security</strong> is a fast, lightweight all-in-one URL redirect, broken-link repair and admin-URL security plugin for WordPress. Built for sites that need real redirect power, real login hardening, and real 404 recovery — without the bloat.</p>
<h4>Why LinkRail?</h4>
<p>Most redirect plugins do one thing. LinkRail bundles three things every serious WordPress site actually needs:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Redirect Manager</strong> — 301, 302, 307, 308, and 410 Gone redirects with exact, prefix, regex, and wildcard matching.</li>
<li><strong>Admin URL Security</strong> — hide your <code>/wp-login.php</code> behind a custom slug, IP-whitelist <code>/wp-admin</code>, and recover with a one-time emergency URL if you ever lock yourself out.</li>
<li><strong>SEO 404 Broken Link Fixer</strong> — auto-detects 404s across your site and suggests or one-click creates redirects to recover lost traffic.</li>
</ol>
<p>All features are <strong>100% free</strong>. No license keys, no upsells, no feature gating.</p>
<h4>Core Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Unlimited redirects (301, 302, 307, 308, 410 Gone)</li>
<li>Match types: exact, prefix, regex (with capture groups), wildcard</li>
<li>Hide wp-login behind a custom slug with IP whitelist and emergency recovery URL</li>
<li>Automatic 404 broken link detection and smart redirect suggestions</li>
<li>Full visit logs per redirect with hit counters</li>
<li>CSV import/export for redirects</li>
<li>JSON import/export for plugin settings (each module saved independently)</li>
<li>Clean, native-feeling admin UI</li>
<li>Translation-ready (text domain: <code>linkrail</code>)</li>
<li>No external services — everything runs locally</li>
</ul>
<h4>Built for Performance</h4>
<ul>
<li>Cached lookups via WordPress object cache</li>
<li>Indexed database tables for sub-millisecond matching</li>
<li>Runs on <code>template_redirect</code> — no interference with other plugins</li>
<li>Zero frontend JS, zero frontend CSS</li>
</ul>
<h4>Privacy</h4>
<p>LinkRail stores redirect rules, visit hit counts, and 404 log entries in your own WordPress database. Nothing is sent to external servers. Bot user-agents are ignored by default to keep logs clean.</p>

<p>Have you ever had to give someone a shortened version of a URL? Maybe you’re a podcaster, and you can’t say “visit mydomain.com/2008/01/03/my-post-with-a-long-url/ for more info.”<br />
Wouldn’t it be useful if you could just say “go to mydomain.com/go/mycoolpost/ ?” Sure, you <em>could</em> use a service like tinyurl.com, but that’s still not too great if you need the URL for a podcast. It’s still awkward to read-out “tinyurl.com/27asr9,” isn’t it? It’s less professional too.<br />
GoCodes let’s you create shortcut URLs to anywhere on the internet, right from your WordPress Admin.<br />
The plugin is also useful for masking affiliate program URLs.</p>

<h3>Origin</h3>
<p>We are proud that original base of this plugin is a fork of GoCodes by redwall_hp (Not available for download and Supported currently).<br />
We worked on the plugin before before releasing it is “WPNeon GoCodes2”, stripped down some code to make it a simple & lightweight.</p>
<h3>Known Issues</h3>
<h4>WP Super Cache</h4>
<p>There seems to be a conflict with the WP Super Cache plugin where a redirect will only work once before the cache is cleared. There are a couple of workarounds:</p>
<ol>
<li>Add “index.php” on a new line in the “Rejected URLs” field of the WP Super Cache options page. yourdomain.com/ will be cached still, but /index.php won’t.</li>
<li>Frederick of frederickding.com put together another method. Add this line to your .htaccess file above the WP Super Cache line: “RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !.<em>gocode=.</em>” It should look something like this:</li>
</ol>
<p>RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !.<em>gocode=.</em><br />
RewriteRule ^(.*) /wp-content/cache/supercache/%{HTTP_HOST}/$1/index.html [L]</p>
