Facebook product links

    I have woocommerce products that expire and are deleted daily
    I have facebook posts that link to these products on my site
    When the product is not found on my site, it creates a 404 error
    The links look like this:
    /?p=33572&fbclid=IwAR0v7coc23SpbG0KNxf-2VZzY-PPBUfxqZkIpV8YQ9rLI7vdWXYj0bkSKQ4

    The only commonality between these liks is
    /?p=

    Using “/?p=” or “^/?p=” and regex doesn’t work
    Redirecting to https://americans-home.com/product-category/forever-stamps/

    also I need this to only work on 404 errors

    Any help will be greatly appreciated

    /?p= is what WordPress uses for posts. I would not create a general redirect for this as you could break things.

    If the problem is specifically the Facebook links then you could look at redirecting fbclid

    but would only need to be for 404 errors of deleted products
    where would I see fbclid and how restrict to 404 errors
    When I create a redirect in the 404 tab, I see no reference to 404s in the created (edit) redirection

    Yes. I’m not sure what reference you are looking for?

    In the context of my previous question:

    “but would only need to be for 404 errors of deleted products
    where would I see fbclid and how restrict to 404 errors
    When I create a redirect in the 404 tab, I see no reference to 404s in the created (edit) redirection”

    Sorry, I’m not really sure what you mean or what the current problem is. As mentioned above I would advise not redirecting ?p= otherwise you could break WordPress.
