I inherited a website that has been around since the 90s, and has thousands of urls hanging around on other websites that are no longer live. They result in 404 redirects. The url scheme was very 90s and extremely messy as well, something you would never use today.
We have redirected about 120 of the more active urls to updated content using 301, and they are working great. Still, the 2nd most common page that visitors get according to my Analytics is “404 – Page Not Found”.
It would take a month go to through and setup individual redirects for all of those old urls.
Is there a way for me to tell the plugin “If one of the 120 redirected urls is requested, send them to the new page. But if any other of the thousands of urls are requested, send them to the home page”?
