• We’ve had a request from editorial staff to be able to implement redirections on a timer. This is useful for our news site as sometimes we have a teaser because a story is embargoed, a story has to update at a certain time, or other reasons.

    So I was wondering if there could be a timer on redirections, either through some plugin update, or maybe there is some hook we can use to make something like this happen.

    I think this is something best done in custom code. Each redirect in the wp_redirection_items table has a ‘status’ field. You could have the status of timed redirects initially set to ‘disabled’, and then your custom code enables them after a certain time.
