<h4>Redirect manager</h4>
<p>Create and manage redirects quickly and easily without needing Apache or Nginx knowledge. If your WordPress supports permalinks then you can use Redirection to redirect any URL.</p>
<p>There is full support for regular expressions so you can create redirect patterns to match any number of URLs. You can match query parameters and even pass them through to the target URL.</p>
<p>The plugin can also be configured to monitor when post or page permalinks are changed and automatically create a redirect to the new URL.</p>
<h4>Conditional redirects</h4>
<p>In addition to straightforward URL matching you can redirect based on other conditions:</p>
<ul>
<li>Login status – redirect only if the user is logged in or logged out</li>
<li>WordPress capability – redirect if the user is able to perform a certain capability</li>
<li>Browser – redirect if the user is using a certain browser</li>
<li>Referrer – redirect if the user visited the link from another page</li>
<li>Cookies – redirect if a particular cookie is set</li>
<li>HTTP headers – redirect based on a HTTP header</li>
<li>Custom filter – redirect based on your own WordPress filter</li>
<li>IP address – redirect if the client IP address matches</li>
<li>Server – redirect another domain if also hosted on this server</li>
