Faq
Absolutely not. Redirect rules are kept in a lightweight, autoloaded cache that WordPress loads once per request. Front-end redirect lookups require zero extra database queries, and the cache rebuilds automatically whenever you add or delete a rule.
No. Both plugins share the same database structure. If you install the full BoostifySEO suite, your existing redirects will be automatically recognized.
This version supports manual entry. Bulk import and AI-powered automatic redirects are available in the Pro version of BoostifySEO.

Changelog
1.0.3
- Assets are now correctly loaded via the WordPress enqueue API: the 410 Gone page stylesheet is enqueued from an external file and the Broken Link Fixer’s semantic-match scripts run from the enqeued admin.js file.
- Uninstall no longer relies on a hardcoded plugin directory; it detects the main BoostifySEO suite via the plugin list/class check.
- Hardened input handling: redirect sources are sanitized and AJAX bulk ID payloads are unslashed, validated, and type-checked before use.
1.0.2
- Content-shaped orphan 404s (dates, media duplicates, author probes, wpcode, graphql) now de-index with a styled HTTP 410 Gone when the fallback toggle is enabled.
- URLs that receive a 410 are automatically marked as Fixed in the Broken Link Fixer log, so they leave the “Open” list.
- System and static paths (missing images, admin, feeds, robots.txt, sitemaps) stay plain 404s and are never logged or auto-redirected.
- Expanded the junk-URL filter for scanner probes and paginated/date archives.
