## Beschrijving

### The Most Powerful WordPress Redirect & Migration Plugin

**Nexura Redirects** is a lightweight, all-in-one **301 redirect manager**, **404
error monitor**, and **database migration** plugin built for WordPress. Whether 
you are migrating to a new domain, changing permalink structures, or recovering 
broken links — Nexura Redirects keeps your SEO rankings safe and your visitors happy.

Stop losing traffic to broken links and 404 errors. Nexura Redirects automates the
entire process with an intelligent **404 error logger**, automatic **301 redirections**
on URL changes, and a serialization-safe **search and replace engine** that won’t
corrupt your database.

Built for speed. Zero bloat. No third-party dependencies. Runs 100% natively inside
your WordPress dashboard.

### 🚀 Key Features

#### 301 Redirect Manager

Create, edit, and manage **301, 302, 307, and 308 redirects** with a powerful admin
interface. Supports bulk actions, inline editing, CSV/JSON import & export, and 
redirect groups for easy organization. Track hits and last-accessed timestamps for
every redirect rule.

#### 404 Error Monitor & Logger

Automatically detect and log every **404 “Page Not Found” error** on your site. 
View the broken URL, visitor IP, user agent, and referrer. Quickly create a redirect
from any 404 entry with one click — no traffic left behind.

#### Auto-Redirect on URL Changes

Whenever a published post, page, or custom post type URL changes, Nexura Redirects**
automatically creates a 301 redirect** from the old URL to the new one. No manual
work required. Fully configurable from the Options panel.

#### Serialized Search & Replace

Safely migrate your WordPress database from one domain to another. Our advanced 
engine correctly handles **PHP serialized data** — recalculating string lengths 
so your Elementor layouts, theme options, widgets, and WooCommerce settings remain
intact.

#### Site Relocate & Canonical URLs

Redirect your entire site to a new domain with one setting. Force **HTTPS**, add
or remove **www**, and configure **site aliases** so traffic from old domains is
automatically redirected to your primary domain.

#### Import & Export

Backup and restore your redirect rules using **CSV or JSON** format. Easily migrate
redirect configurations between staging, development, and production environments.

#### Privacy & GDPR Compliant Logging

Full control over what gets logged. Choose between **full IP**, **anonymized IP**,
or **no IP logging**. Set independent retention policies for redirect logs and 404
logs. Delete all plugin data with a single click.

### 💡 Why Choose Nexura Redirects Over Other Plugins?

 * **Ultra-Lightweight** — No external API calls, no JavaScript frameworks, no bloat.
   Pure PHP + native WordPress APIs.
 * **Serialization-Safe Migration** — Unlike basic find-and-replace tools, we safely
   handle serialized arrays so Elementor, WPBakery, and theme customizer data never
   breaks.
 * **Complete Privacy Control** — GDPR-friendly IP anonymization, configurable log
   retention, and a “Delete All Data” button.
 * **One-Click 404 Recovery** — See a broken URL? Click once to create a redirect.
   Done.
 * **Developer Friendly** — Clean, well-documented codebase. Passes WordPress PHPCS
   standards. Hooks and filters for extensibility.

### 🎯 Real-World Problems Nexura Solves for You

 * **Trailing Slash Inconsistencies (`/page` vs `/page/`):** Visitors and crawlers
   often add or omit trailing slashes. Nexura evaluates both formats so your redirects
   never fail or trigger 404 errors.
 * **Preserving Paid Campaign UTM Tracking:** When redirecting landing pages, Nexura
   can pass all query parameters (`?utm_source=...`) directly to the destination
   URL, ensuring your Google Analytics and Meta Ads attribution remains accurate.
 * **Stopping Infinite Redirect Loops (`ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS`):** Built-in loop
   detection checks whether a target points to itself or relative cycles, preventing
   browser loop errors before they happen.
 * **1-Click Migration from Other Redirect Plugins:** Switching from John Godley’s
   Redirection, Rank Math, Yoast SEO, or Simple 301 Redirects? Simply upload your
   exported CSV file. Nexura auto-detects header columns and regex patterns seamlessly.
 * **Zero Database Bloat on Shared Hosting:** Keep your database lean. Nexura includes
   an automated daily WP-Cron log pruner and configurable retention settings (none,
   day, week, month) to prevent server slowdowns.
 * **Broken Layouts During Domain Migrations:** Basic find-and-replace corrupts 
   PHP serialized strings. Nexura’s Serialized Search & Replace tool safely recalculates
   string lengths so Elementor, Divi, and WooCommerce never break.

### 🔒 Built With Data Safety in Mind

Our Serialized Search & Replace tool is engineered to handle the most complex WordPress
database structures. It recursively processes serialized arrays and objects, recalculating
string lengths automatically. Your widgets, themes, page builders (Elementor, Divi,
Beaver Builder), and WooCommerce product data remain perfectly intact during domain
migrations.

### 🌍 Translation Ready

Nexura Redirects ships with full internationalization support and includes translations
for 10+ languages: Bengali, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese (Brazil),
Dutch, Russian, Japanese, and Arabic.

## Installatie

 1. Upload the `nexura-redirects` folder to your `/wp-content/plugins/` directory, 
    or install it directly through **Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin**.
 2. Activate **Nexura Redirects** from the WordPress Plugins screen.
 3. Navigate to the **Redirects** menu in your WordPress admin sidebar.
 4. Start creating 301 redirects, monitor 404 errors, or use the Migration tool to 
    safely search and replace your database.

## FAQ

### Does this plugin slow down my website?

No. Nexura Redirects is meticulously coded for performance. It uses efficient indexed
database queries and WordPress object caching to ensure redirect lookups happen 
in under a millisecond. There is zero impact on your frontend page load speed.

### Will the Search and Replace tool break my Elementor pages?

Absolutely not. Our advanced Search and Replace engine safely handles PHP serialized
data by recursively unserializing, replacing, and re-serializing with correct string
length calculations. Your Elementor layouts, theme settings, widgets, and WooCommerce
data remain perfectly intact.

### Can I redirect old URLs to external domains?

Yes. You can set up redirects to point to any internal page on your site, or to 
any external URL on a different domain.

### Does it automatically track 404 errors?

Yes. The 404 Error Monitor logs every request that results in a “Not Found” error,
including the visitor IP, user agent, and referrer. You can review this log and 
create redirects directly from the 404 list with one click.

### Can I disable the 404 Monitor to save database space?

Yes. You can set the 404 log retention to “No logs” in the Options tab. You can 
also independently control redirect log retention and IP logging preferences.

### Is Nexura Redirects GDPR compliant?

Yes. You have full control over IP logging — choose between full IP, anonymized 
IP (using WordPress’s native `wp_privacy_anonymize_ip()`), or no IP logging at all.
You can also delete all stored plugin data with a single button click.

### What happens if I uninstall the plugin?

Uninstalling the plugin via the WordPress dashboard will safely drop all custom 
database tables (redirects, groups, redirect logs, 404 logs) and delete all plugin
options from the database, leaving zero orphaned data behind.

### Can I import redirects from another plugin?

Yes! Nexura Redirects provides universal CSV/JSON import compatibility. You can 
directly upload exported CSV files from John Godley’s Redirection, Rank Math, Yoast
SEO Premium, Simple 301 Redirects, or 301 Redirects by WebFactory. The importer 
automatically detects column headers and regex flags.

### How does Nexura handle trailing slashes (/)?

Nexura includes smart trailing slash tolerance by default. A rule created for `/
example` will match both `/example` and `/example/` (and vice-versa), eliminating
broken redirects caused by trailing slash discrepancies.

### Will my marketing campaign UTM tracking parameters be preserved during redirection?

Yes. In the Options tab under Default Query Matching, select “Pass query parameters
to target”. Any parameters attached to the request (such as `?utm_source=facebook&
utm_campaign=spring`) will automatically be appended to the destination URL.

### How does Nexura protect against infinite redirect loops?

Nexura compares the normalized relative path and host of the destination against
the incoming request before executing the redirect. If the target matches the current
requested URL, the redirection is stopped safely, preventing `ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS`
browser errors.

### Does it support regex or wildcard redirects?

Yes! Nexura Redirects fully supports regular expression (regex) matching with capture
groups ($1, $2, etc.) for advanced redirection patterns. You can easily enable regex
for any rule with the checkbox.
