Redirect from WP Plugin
-
Any way of preventing a re-direct caused by a wordpress plugin?
-
I know
Hi checked out your plug-in it does not look like the best solution for total security and all honesty you can't get that from a simple plug-in you need to have a hardend server you might want to look into
Every one of them of is a far better job protecting your information the one plug and can and I'll have a server-side secure built in
My 2 cents

What is the specific redirect you're looking at, Brett? In some cases, redirects are essential to the way certain functionality works. This can be especially true of security plugins. In which case a judgement call has to be made whether the security feature is more important than the tiny increase in site speed from removing it.

thanks Chris. the plugin is wordfence

If you go to the Plugins category from within the Wordpress Dashboard then you should be able to click 'edit' on the offending plugin in order to remove the code manually that is causing the redirect. Without knowing exactly which Plugin is causing you grief I can’t give specifics but the redirect code should be fairly obvious.
Just bear in mind that whenever you update the Plugin the redirect code will reappear and will have to be manually edited out again.

thanks. tried this but the plugins in question do not have any options concerning redirect and they are required on my site.

Yes go into your dashboard when logged into WordPress. Find plug-ins look for the plug-in that is doing the redirect itself and disable it. Or if it has options which I'm sure it does find the offending redirect and remove that.
I hope that would've helped you

How To Avoid Redirect Chains When Switching From http to https
I have been working on on-page SEO which has involved switching from http to https, and renaming URLs. I am running in to issues with redirect chains. Here is a scenario: Old URL: http://bwisecontractors.ca/products/decks-and-deck-covers/ New URL: https://bwisecontractors.ca/renos-additions/sunrooms-patio-covers/ Since I already created the redirect addressing the redirecting from http to https for the root domain: (http://bwisecontractors.ca to https://bwisecontractors.ca), should the redirect for the above be http://bwisecontractors.ca/products/decks-and-deck-covers/ to https://bwisecontractors.ca/renos-additions/sunrooms-patio-covers/ , or should it be http://bwisecontractors.ca/products/decks-and-deck-covers/ to http://bwisecontractors.ca/renos-additions/sunrooms-patio-covers/ (and the root domain redirect will take care of going from http to https)

302 Temporary Redirects
Hi, We currently have a number of 302 redirects set up on our e-commerce store that redirect from no forward slash at the end to a forward slash at the end of the url (see below). example: domain.com/treadmills
On-Page Optimization | | DustyBraband
Redirects to
domain.com/treadmills/ Am I correct in saying that this will not pass link juice and the redirects should be changed to 301's (or just removed?). Or are the two urls treated the same (with or without forward slash)? Thanks in advance! Regards,
