Smart 404 Redirect by Puzzle Sideral helps site owners fix broken URLs without digging through server logs.
The plugin captures public 404 requests, groups repeated hits, and uses a local Smart Match engine to compare the broken URL with your published WordPress content. When it finds a likely match, you can create an internal 301 redirect with one click.
Features:
<ul>
<li>Captures public 404 URLs automatically.</li>
<li>Groups repeated hits and shows last referrer when available.</li>
<li>Local smart matching based on URL slug, post title, and keywords.</li>
<li>One-click internal 301 redirects from the admin screen.</li>
<li>Manual redirect target field for edge cases.</li>
<li>Simple Witflow-style dashboard with status cards and active rules.</li>
</ul>
The smart matching runs locally inside WordPress. It does not send URLs or content to external AI providers.
<h3>Privacy</h3>
This plugin stores broken URL paths, hit counts, timestamps, and the last referrer URL when available. It does not store visitor IP addresses and does not send captured URLs to third-party services.

Check for Broken Links scans your entire WordPress site for broken links, dead links, and 404 errors — and alerts you the moment something breaks, before Google finds it first.
Your site breaks quietly while you are busy. Pages get deleted, plugins get abandoned, external sites go offline. You had no idea. Check for Broken Links finds every broken link across your posts, pages, custom post types, comments, and slider content, and shows you exactly where each one was found so you can fix it fast.
Free Version
Run manual scans anytime and get a full results table showing every broken link, its status code, and exactly which page it was found on. Filter by type, export to CSV, and stay in full control with no automatic changes to your content.
Pro Version — Set It Once, Forget It
Pro runs automatic scheduled scans daily, weekly, or monthly and emails you. No manual checking, no guessing — just a silent background monitor that alerts you when something needs your attention.

Check for Broken Links


This plugin does the job well for pages, posts and comments. However, it does not scan the entire site, as it does not include searching to dead links in Custom Post Types - so this is my only reason for my 4 stars as oppose to 5.



UPDATE: After that awesome response, which is refreshing as some others resist and give excuses, I'm updating my review to 5 stars, can't wait for the next update - you guys are awesome and deserve it...


Works well, but lacks support for CPT.


No membership, no cloud, no muss, no fuss. Just works. Thank you :)


Perfect


Simple but effective and works as it should, thank you author.
