We are always here for you, providing answers to all questions within 24 hours.
On the control panel of this Joomla! component you can view:
On the Error 404 links page, you will find a list with all the error links (e.g. 400, 401, 403, 404, etc.) their necessary details and a Fix-it button in every row.
Use the Search-Tools bar to filter only the errors that have been already fixed or have been non-fixed yet. In addition, you can also search the error links with specific HTTP codes or the errors within a day, in 7 days, in a month, or the latest three months.
Finally, at the top-left toolbar, there are two helpful options, to delete all error links or only the ones that have already been resolved.
On the page “Redirects”, you can see a list with the already-fixed URLs. View the match type of the redirect (e.g. Full URL, Contains, Starts or Ends with a string, Find and Replace), the source URL or text, the target URL when matched with its match type, the hits and the and the date-time of last accessed.
You can easily add a redirect by filling the below fields.
We offer you three types of logging:
Benefit from instant email notifications about the 404 error links. You will receive a detailed email that includes crucial information about the error link, the Attempter’s Country, the IP address, the web browser, and the operating system. In the end, you will find an action button that will transfer you to the Joomla administrator panel and will help you fix this link quickly.
Set the proper amount of notifications you want to receive about your 404 Error Links.
Send email only once for the same error link.
The email notification will be sent only once for each error link.
Send email only if there have been over X time visits at an error link.
You will receive an email notification only if the visits (hits) of the error link overcome the given count.
You can choose to automatically redirect all 404 links to one single page, a custom URL or a menu item. This parameter will not override the error URLs that have been already fixed (Redirects).
Redirect all URLs that contain a danger string to one specific page, a custom URL or a menu item. You will also be able to manage the list of the danger strings. You can insert more danger strings by adding one entry per row.
