    Redirection Plugin

    Redirection is a WordPress plugin to create and manage redirects. When activated, the plugin allows you to create simple redirects on your site for when your page URLs change and you want to automatically redirect site visitors to another page. This plugin is available upon request on the CALS Web hosting platform.

      Getting Started

      Once the plugin is activated on your site, you can access it in a menu option in the WordPress admin menu under Tools > Redirection.

      Create and Manage Redirects

      The redirect management page is where you’ll do most of the work in Redirection. It consists of a table with all your redirects and a section to add new ones. To access this page select the Redirects option in the top menu bar.

      • View detailed instructions on the plugin vendor’s website.
