Sobi Redirects

Exact redirects. No database. No tracking. No bloat.

Sobi Redirects keeps a short list of exact paths and sends each one to a page, another path, or a full URL. You add the addresses you care about. Search Console already records the rest.

• One JSON file — rules live in uploads/sobi-redirects/rules.json. There is no database table, and the front end never queries MySQL.
• A miss changes nothing — if no rule matches, WordPress continues. No query, no log line, no extra header.
• Exact and predictable — a path matches that path. A path with parameters matches those parameters only, in any order. The target is sent as you wrote it.
• No logs, no stats, no tracking — no 404 log and no hit counter. Requests for /xmlrpc.php or /.env are not stored.
• A small screen — one list under Tools → Sobi Redirects. Add, edit, enable, disable, delete.
• CSV import and export — columns source, target, code, enabled. Import adds rows and leaves existing sources as they are.

A match is redirected before WordPress runs the main query. The code is 301 or 302. One hop per request. A chain is fine across later requests. A loop is refused when you save.

Sobi Redirects is built by the makers of Sobi Forms, a lightweight contact form plugin.
