    Hi your plugin seems to redirect all missing pages ( to the url above) but I get a lot of these urls below in my 404 log and your plugin wont seem to redirect them. Is there any workaround?

    /.well-known/acme-challenge/8_7371SK3Q7H2077B4Z_1GM8WSZ6GINN
    /.well-known/acme-challenge/YFPBP6FNYK1XWNX0LYBR4P_V850VY6TP
    /.well-known/acme-challenge/W3O_1_IE9JEFFX6NW64MZVKH23UD9MK7

    I have tries a html page that starts with “.” eg: /.rubbish.html or /.rubbishj.php
    and even this redirects /.rubbish/morerubbish/ghjagssksjsg/
    but The longer urls above give an error message as follows:-

    Not Found
    The requested URL /.well-known/acme-challenge/8_7371SK3Q7H2077B4Z_1GM8WSZ6GINN was not found on this server.
    Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi @dainty,

    URLs can not start with a dot in WordPress. If you access .well-known/ that is being handled by the server as a 404 not WordPress. There is nothing we can do for this using WordPress. You need to find out the source of those requests and fix. Or set a redirect in .htaccess.

    To skip those errors from log, you can add /.well-known to exclude paths.
