Redirect Order

  • We recently converted a .aspx site to a WordPress site with the Redirection Plugin (now version 2.7.1). We have a number of redirects and a general catchall redirect which directs all .aspx pages to the home page of the new site:-
    ^(.*)\.aspx -> / (regular expression redirect)
    This works a little too well. I now want to add a specific .aspx page which goes to an archive site:-
    /news-and-media-centre/newsletters/listhm.aspx ->
    https://buryccg.solutions.co.uk/news-and-media-centre/newsletters/listhm.aspx
    The problem is that the specific redirection does not work when the catchall is enabled – no matter what I set the “Pos” value to (the catchall has a Pos of 100 whereas the specific redirect has a Pos of 4, but it makes no difference if I set the catchall Pos to 0.
    So does the Pos function work? If so, does a higher or lower Pos get priority? One of the other posts here mentioned Sorting. I realise I can sort the display, but is there a function for sorting the redirects? There are only a total of 19 redirects in the list.

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