404 Logging removal method

Hi @clane121,

Thanks for the suggestion – I’ll see what I can do.

Note however that the plugin only stores the most recent 404 errors (I think the limit is 50), and automatically purges older ones once the limit is reached. So you will never have a list that keeps growing forever.

Thank you for the quick reply. I got to tell you, I was grateful to find this plugin. My client had over 500 links removed which I had to 410. Needless to say having 530+ 410’s displayed on the page is interesting, lol. Maybe you can make them visible and editable via a scrolling window, as in like the link entry window, keeping the page size to a minimum in such cases.

Wow, that’s a lot of links – I would recommend using wildcards wherever possible (instead of single URLs) as this will give much better performance.

I’ll try and address the 404 list and page size issues in the next release.

Hi – just to chime in here as it follows on from what clane121 was asking. I have a few links which turned up in the 404 list but I have resolved these by adding them to a 301 list. Am I okay just to find the entries in the MySQL table wp_410_links and delete those entries that I do not want to assign a 410?

@titan21 yes you can do that. If you don’t want to mess about with SQL you can add them to the 410 list and the delete them from there.
