Changing your link structure in WordPress can lead to all of your old links breaking and returning a “404”. But no more! If someone goes to an old link for your site, I’ll find the new link and redirect them there automatically.
No configuration. No one-by-one setting of the new link structures. No wrestling with complicated regex patterns. Just install me and relax.
Redirect 404s works with posts, pages, and custom post types (like ecommerce products).
<ul>
<li>Note – the plugin only works for permalink structures where the last “chunk” of the URL is the post name (also called the slug).</li>
</ul>

Redirect Old Links

Did you change your permalink structure and now have old links "404ing"? I'll redirect those old links to their new one for you.

Update URLs – Quick and Easy way to search old links and replace them with new links in WordPress

We used to use the Velvet one but it seems to have been abandoned. Glad to see that they took over development.

We tried this one on a few websites and it has changed the URLs successfully. Saved us lots of time. Tested the websites after and they're fine.

Works well


I come from Velvet Blues plugin that used to do the same job, but abandoned with a serious security flaw (and ultimately banned from downloaded again from wp.org). I was looking for that plugin and found your fork. Thanks again for keeping it up-to-date.


Thanks for keeping it updated
