Over the last few weeks, we've shipped and kept enhancing two highly requested features for SEO Pro: Redirects and Error Management.

If you've ever renamed a URL slug and immediately heard that tiny voice inside you quietly say "I hope that didn't break anything...", this one is for you.

Slug changes can create redirects automatically

When an entry slug changes, SEO Pro can now automatically create the redirect from the old URL to the new one for you.

No manual redirect spreadsheets, no third-party audit tools required, and best of all — no mystery dip in traffic thanks to the secret stash of URLs that died quietly in the night.

The new Redirects Manager

SEO Pro now includes a full Redirects Manager where you can add and maintain 301 and 302 rules in one place.

These rules have full wildcard support, which means one rule can do a lot of work for you:

• /blog/* -> /articles/$1
• /summer-campaign/*/final-final-v2/* -> /campaigns/$1/actually-final/$2

And in case you were wondering, yes we absolutely do support importing a spreadsheet of existing redirects to save you a bunch of time. Thought of that too.

The new 404 Error Manager

Error Management tracks missing URLs and surfaces what matters first by ordering errors based on how much traffic is actually hitting dead URLs.

Now all you need to do is take action on the URLs: add redirects, create a new page to catch traffic, fix a broken link, or pick secret option number 4 — painstakingly create custom-designed 404 pages for each and every one of them by hiring celebrities to record special messages for your visitors.

Option 4 sounds awesome.

Data Storage

Like everything else in Statamic, you can choose to store these redirects and logs in flat files or in a database. Whether you choose to version-control them or scale them to thousands and beyond is all up to you.

Try it out

If you're already running SEO Pro, update to the latest and take it for a spin (these features were launched in version 7.7). If you're not, this release is a pretty great moment to jump in. Check it out on the Marketplace.

This leads us to the obvious next question — what should we build next?
