WP 404 Auto Redirect to Similar Post

This is, THE MOST "must have" plugin I've ever found.

a must plugin

Automatically Redirect any 404 page to a Similar Post based on the Title Post Type & Taxonomy using 301 or 302 Redirects!

Georgi Popov

<p>This plugin provides a list of similar / related entries to an article or a custom post type entry.</p>
<p>This list could be added in the form of a:</p>
<ol>
<li>Gutenberg Block</li>
<li>Shortcode</li>
<li>Widget</li>
</ol>
<p>If you add a widget to the sidebar it will only appear when on the details view of an entry, as similarity cannot be calculated when on a list page of multiple entries.</p>
<p>The syntax for the shortcode is <code>[magadanski-similar-posts id="" post_type="" taxonomy="" limit=""]</code></p>
<p>You can use the attributes as follows:</p>
<ol>
<li>ID — (<em>integer</em>) the ID of the post you’d like to get similar posts for. Default value: the current post ID.</li>
<li>post_type — (<em>string</em>) the post type you’d like to query. Default value: “post”.</li>
<li>taxonomy — (<em>string</em>) the taxonomy based on which you’d like to get similar items. Default value: “category”.</li>
<li>limit — (<em>integer</em>) a maximum number of results you’d like to receive. Default value: 5.</li>
</ol>
<p>The similarity is considered based on the number of common categories (or other taxonomy terms) for this post and the rest of the posts in your blog.</p>


M Similar Posts

This plugin lists similar to the current post based on the number of common categories.
