Automatic redirects

    Hello,
    thanks for your awesome plugin!

    I’m trying to set up the creation of automatic redirects, if an author changes the slug of an article or changes its category, then they will also change the link.

    In the settings I found:
    URL> URL Inspection> Article Change Inspection
    It seems to be the setting I was looking for, but then why does it ask me to insert a redirect control?
    I would simply like to create a redirect from the old permalink to the new one.
    Thank you

    I don’t know what plugin you are using, but the setting you mentioned is not part of Redirection.

    I mean this setting of your plugin.

    That is not the standard English language used in the plugin. Maybe it has been auto translated?

    why does it ask me to insert a redirect control?

    What do you mean by this?

    Documentation for the setting can be found here:

    https://redirection.me/support/options/

    You check the post types you want to monitor and then pick a group to create them in.

    sorry I translated it automatically because I see it in my language. I just intend to create a redirect when changing the permalink. I thought the plugin could automatically save this change. Instead of asking authors to manually insert the redirect into the plugin.

    Thank you

    It’s not asking authors to manually insert a redirect. As I mentioned above, you pick the post types to monitor, pick the group, and it will monitor and create redirects when the permalinks of posts of that type change.

    Ok so that setting is correct. I was in confusion because “URL Monitor Change” appears below, so nothing must be entered.
    Thank you
