@marciowd we used https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/wp-rollback/ to roll back the plugin. Worked really well!

Confirmation that v1.20.0 has this bug on our site as well.

I spoke with Flywheel hosting and they would love to learn more about this plugin and would apply the necessary nginx rewrite information if you could provide it. I would much rather use this plugin than one of the other paid options.

Yes, this does fix the issue. When I visit the link you provide in the admin, I see what this setting clearly does. However, you might want to add more context to that setting. I would be helpful to see this information in the admin as well:

“Returns given text with transformations of quotes into smart quotes, apostrophes, dashes, ellipses, the trademark symbol, and the multiplication symbol.”

I’m also seeing this strange empty menu.

<li class="wp-has-submenu wp-not-current-submenu"><a href="admin.php?page=wpseo_installation_successful_free" class="wp-has-submenu wp-not-current-submenu" aria-haspopup="true"><div class="wp-menu-arrow"><div></div></div><div class="wp-menu-image dashicons-before" aria-hidden="true"></div><div class="wp-menu-name"></div></a>
	<ul class="wp-submenu wp-submenu-wrap"><li class="wp-submenu-head" aria-hidden="true"></li><li class="wp-first-item"><a href="admin.php?page=wpseo_installation_successful_free" class="wp-first-item"></a></li><li><a href="admin.php?page=wpseo_configurator"></a></li></ul></li>

This seems to appear between my 4th and 5th custom post type. Not sure if that has something to do with it or not, but this menu simply should not exist.

This fix is confirmed. Thanks for the quick response!

Ha. Such an obvious place to look. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Gutenberg blocks are handled through the EDITOR. When you register you post type, you need to include that it supports editor

...
'supports' => array( 'editor', ...)

I was able to find a solution that uses a filter to suppress the output

@elsaaddthis this would seem like bloat to me. For the plugin to utilize that, it has to call out to the account and verify if it should show/hide. If this were built into the plugin in a global way (exactly like it is on the individual page level), it could simply check the local setting and suppress the output. Additionally, when utilizing this plugin for clients, many of our clients do not end up creating AddThis accounts, which means they don’t have access to this feature.

I’ll take a look at the logs. I guess I have to FTP to the server to see those directly?

Mikko, I mention this because Relevanssi shows top search keywords, and if spam searches are being submitted, then those top searchers are practically useless. The fact that only top keywords are shown and not a complete list makes it even more useless if spam searches are being stored.

@mikelast: I was able to roll one of my sites back to version 2.4.3 and everything seemed to import exactly as expected. It also created those groups that I mentioned. You can download old versions at https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/redirection/developers/

@mikelast: I would suggest you submit this bug directly to their github at https://github.com/johngodley/redirection/issues

@esmi, I’m a little confused. I clearly know that this isn’t my topic, but I think that the issue that I pointed out is related to the problem that these individuals are reporting. I would venture to guess that if they recently installed this plugin, and they navigate to the “groups” tab within the plugin, they will find that no groups were added automatically. If this is the case, then I would tend to think the fact that no groups exist is the reason they are receiving the “Invalid group when creating redirect” error.

I might suggest that these users simply add these two aforementioned groups themselves, but since I am not the plugin developer I can not attest to if those groups are granted special functionality within the plugin that is now missing since they were not created when the plugin is installed and activated.

However, thanks for pointing out the forum rules. That was very helpful in trying to solve this issue.
