    Hello and thank you for this great plugin,
    I wanted to know if there was a way to bypass temporarly the plugin, I give you an example:

    My hosting service is stripping the utm_ parameter in url and I would like to apply a special treatment for the urls having this parameter. I just want to redirect them to the homepage.

    I tried with the redirection_url_source filter or even the redirection_last action but the remaining problem is that the utm parameter is still added to the new url I redirect to, which cause infinite redirection loop. I tried the regex feature it does not work either…
    Could you give me some guidelines please?
    Thanks

    I’m not sure exactly what you mean, bypass in PHP? How are you using those filters?

    Hey, thanks for your reply.
    Actually, if I find the utm_ parameter in the $url passed in the filter, I force a wp_redirect to the homepage for example.

    Ok, so if I understand you have a redirect, and you are using a filter to try and detect if a utm parameter exists. If it does, then you want to cancel the Redirection redirect and do your own redirect? This works, but a utm parameter is added. Who is adding it?

    This is totally correct.
    I do not why this parameter keep on being appened even to the redirected url. I was hoping that you could advise me or could give me a trick to bypass temporarily your plugin to redirect the earliest possible.
    What do you think?

    If you are using wp_redirect to perform a redirect then Redirection is not involved.

    Alright then, I suspect a cache issue regarding the hosting service. I’m going to investigate in this direction. I keep you posted.
    Thanks
