Multiple Domain Mapping on Single Site vs Redirection

What does this plugin do? This lightweight plugin maps domains to specific URIs in your blog or website. It allows you to add as many mappings, e.g. for landingpages, as you want. Just let the domains point to your WordPress installation (see the installation tab for details) and decide which URI the plugin should map them to. What is this plugin for? The main purpose of the plugin is to have specific domains show the content of specific pages from a bigger website. This is especially needed for marketing and SEO purposes (landingpages). Think of a site-structure like www.mainsite.com www.mainsite.com/productA www.mainsite.com/productB With the plugin you can use an additional domain like www.productA.com to point to your site’s www.mainsite.com/productA. It is not a redirection, instead the additional domain will display the content from the specified page (the additional domain will be visible in the browsers address bar). What is this plugin not for? It is not our goal to mirror complete websites to additional domains. You can try to do this, but keep the aspects of duplicate content in mind. In the help section of the installed plugin we provide links to other plugins who may be better at this task. Which Pages, Post Types, … does the plugin support? The plugin lets you define URIs to map to, so it works for pages, posts, custom post types, archives and so on. The plugin also changes hyperlink destination of the links inside your website. For example: navigation, pagination, archive links and so on. (Note: This only works if your theme and other link-generating plugins use standard WordPress functions like get_permalink). So you will not have to select posts to map to your domains, but instead enter URIs. See the screenshots for examples. Is it hard to set up? The plugin requires additional steps in setting up your domains and hosting environment (see the installation-tab for details). If you are not familiar with these settings, it can happen that you have troubles with reaching your website. Therefore you should only set up the plugin in a testing environment if you are not sure if you can deal with these external settings. We give our best to support you, but if you have troubles with correct DNS records and hosting environment settings, you should talk to your hosting provider or your web developer first. Troubles? Please see installation-tab, FAQ and the already answered support threads for more information or if you have troubles setting up the plugin. PREMIUM We have partnered with the plugin “Domain Mapping System” to be able to provide plugins for different use cases. Since they offer a paid version, they will also be able to provide you professional support. You want to benefit from special deals and coupons for the other plugin? Find more information here.

Redirection is the most popular redirect manager for WordPress. With it you can easily manage 301 redirections, keep track of 404 errors, and generally tidy up any loose ends your site may have. This can help reduce errors and improve your site ranking. Redirection is designed to be used on sites with a few redirects to sites with thousands of redirects. It has been a WordPress plugin for over 10 years and has been recommended countless times. And it’s free! Full documentation can be found at https://redirection.me Redirection is compatible with PHP from 7.4 to 8.5. Redirect manager Create and manage redirects quickly and easily without needing Apache or Nginx knowledge. If your WordPress supports permalinks then you can use Redirection to redirect any URL. There is full support for regular expressions so you can create redirect patterns to match any number of URLs. You can match query parameters and even pass them through to the target URL. The plugin can also be configured to monitor when post or page permalinks are changed and automatically create a redirect to the new URL. Conditional redirects In addition to straightforward URL matching you can redirect based on other conditions: Login status – redirect only if the user is logged in or logged out WordPress capability – redirect if the user is able to perform a certain capability Browser – redirect if the user is using a certain browser Referrer – redirect if the user visited the link from another page Cookies – redirect if a particular cookie is set HTTP headers – redirect based on a HTTP header Custom filter – redirect based on your own WordPress filter IP address – redirect if the client IP address matches Server – redirect another domain if also hosted on this server Page type – redirect if the current page is a 404 Full logging A configurable logging option allows to view all redirects occurring on your site, including information about the visitor, the browser used, and the referrer. A ‘hit’ count is maintained for each redirect so you can see if a URL is being used. Logs can be exported for external viewing, and can be searched and filtered for more detailed investigation. Display geographic information about an IP address, as well as a full user agent information, to try and understand who the visitor is. You are able to disable or reduce IP collection to meet the legal requirements of your geographic region, and can change the amount of information captured from the bare minimum to HTTP headers. You can also log any redirect happening on your site, including those performed outside of Redirection. Add HTTP headers HTTP headers can be added to redirects or your entire site that help reduce the impact of redirects or help increase security. You can also add your own custom headers. Track 404 errors Redirection will keep track of all 404 errors that occur on your site, allowing you to track down and fix problems. Errors can be grouped to show where you should focus your attention, and can be redirected in bulk. Query parameter handling You can match query parameters exactly, ignore them, and even pass them through to your target. Migrate Permalinks Changed your permalink structure? You can migrate old permalinks simply by entering the old permalink structure. Multiple migrations are supported. Apache & Nginx support By default Redirection will manage all redirects using WordPress. However you can configure it so redirects are automatically saved to a .htaccess file and handled by Apache itself. If you use Nginx then you can export redirects to an Nginx rewrite rules file. Fine-grained permissions Fine-grained permissions are available so you can customise the plugin for different users. This makes it particularly suitable for client sites where you may want to prevent certain actions, and remove functionality. Import & Export The plugin has a fully-featured import and export system and you can: Import and export to Apache .htaccess Export to Nginx rewrite rules Copy redirects between sites using JSON Import and export to CSV for viewing in a spreadsheet Use WP CLI to automate import and export You can also import from the following plugins: Simple 301 Redirects SEO Redirection Safe Redirect Manager Rank Math WordPress old slug redirects Quick Post/Pages redirects Search Regex compatible Redirection is compatible with Search Regex, allowing you to bulk update your redirects. Wait, it’s free? Yes, it’s really free. There’s no premium version and no need to pay money to get access to features. This is a dedicated redirect management plugin.
