    Hi,

    Any means to revert to previous version?

    The last release seems full of bugs, only a small amount of my redirections (i got a lot amount) are redirected, the others are giving 404 since the update.

    Thanks by advance.

    regards.

    How is it buggy? Can you give an example?

    as i tried to explain, most of the redirections are not done giving 404 error.

    example:

    https://www.mysite.com/quest-ce-qui-cloche-avec-cette-photo/

    should redirect to /insolite/

    regex redirection:
    URL source ^/quest-ce-qui-cloche-avec-cette-photo.*
    URL cible /insolite/

    Everything worked fine before updating the plugin.

    Note that ma redirection database contains more than 6000 redirections (i’ve made a lot of url deletion since few years)

    Bug reports always need details to be useful. You said it was full of bugs, but only mentioned one thing – are there other issues?

    I’ve just tried creating the same redirect as you mentioned above and it works fine. Are all your redirects regular expressions? What redirect does work and is that a regular expression?

    90% of my redirections are regex of that kind.

    Some of them are still working as i can see in the journal, but lots don’t and i can’t figure out any difference between them.

    example:

    URL source ^/bulles-de-savon-gelees.*
    URL cible /insolite/

    is working.

    All of them were working previously, ie before the update.

    I also noticed some troubleshooting with the interface, sometime falling in error while editing redirections. But this can be related to my plugin cache.

    The disparition of the option to delete all 404 errors journal is probably intended, but it was useful

    So you have over 3600 regular expressions? Ok, that is the problem. For now I would use the previous version (https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/redirection/advanced/). I suggest you also look at your redirects – that many regular expressions is extremely inefficient and I’m surprised your site works. I certainly did not anticipate anyone would have so many.

    I don’t know what you mean by that, but you can still delete all 404s.

    Yes i’m over 3600 regex. That’s bad i guess…

    Thank you for your help!!

    I’ll mark this as resolved. I will look at a way to handle this kind of situation in the next version so redirects don’t stop working, but I would try and reduce your regular expressions, or convert them to plain redirects.
