    Hi,

    Is there no way to set a redirect from within a page’s setting for that page instead of having to paste the url (which could change) and have to put all the redirects in the settings page?

    Thanks

    Redirects are managed from Redirection’s admin page. You can configure it monitor changes in posts.

    I’m not sure what you mean by monitor it in posts. When i said the url could change, i meant the url to redirect to, not to redirect from.

    What I am looking for is basically a little meta box inside a post edit page where i can input in a “Redirect this page to” field, a url to redirect to if people land on this post/page.

    If this is not an option, please consider it.

    I’ll be honest, this is what Quick Redirects plugin does, but it’s 2 years old with no updates and I want to switch to your plugin but this is the main functionality for why I am using that plugin to begin with.

    Just think about it for future feature perhaps. Thanks

    Just my two cents as another user.

    The way Redirection works, with a central “repository” of redirections is more efficient. As I understand what you are requesting (never having used a redirection plugin other than Redirection, I could be misunderstanding you), you would have to go to each page/post to manage the redirects where with the Redirection plugin, you manage he redirects from one place.

    Correct, but I would not “have to”, as I am not looking for this to replace the main repository, I just want the option to also do it from the individual page.

    The plugin example I gave has both options and I find it convenient more often than not. I would just love to have that option in addition to the main one.
