Modern Code applied

As this plugin is pretty helpfull, we have changed the PHP code to work under Wordpress 6.5. and PHP 8.3. You can download the actuell version on our site for free (it’s in German, sorry) at Thoka Network (thoka.network/redirect-wordpress-to-landing-page/).

would be perfect, but broken ??

unfortunately, whatever frequency I try to set the timer to redirect to, it still does it every single time – making my blog unusable. I’ve had to disable the plugin until the developer fixes it. There’s an error report in the forum from 3 months ago, but still not fixed ??

Its Perfect .

I had to clear cache before it would work. Apart from that, some to the links in the admin area would get redirected. Sure I had the ‘redirect all pages’ option selected, but I would expect that for only frontend pages. Well – just the plugin i needed. sadly dint work for me

Working as Intended
