What the author says it does
404 to 301 is a redirect manager and 404 error monitor for WordPress. Create your own custom redirects with 301, 302 or 307 redirection, send every remaining 404 error to a page of your choosing, and keep a full log of the broken links visitors and search engines actually hit.
Broken links cost you traffic. A visitor who lands on a 404 page usually leaves, and Google eventually drops the URL from its index along with whatever link equity it had earned. This redirect manager fixes both halves of that problem. You get precise redirection rules for the URLs you know about, and 404 error logs that surface the ones you don’t.
Need more than redirects?
404 to 301 is free and every feature is included, with no license key and no upsell. If you also want full-site and .htaccess redirect rules, automatic 404 monitoring across large sites, Google Search Console crawl error data, and a complete SEO toolkit alongside your redirection, take a look at AIOSEO Pro.
🔀 Custom 301 Redirects and Redirection Rules
Take control of your URLs from one redirect manager. Create as many custom redirects as you need and pick the redirect type per rule, so a permanent move uses a 301 redirect and a temporary campaign URL uses a 302 or 307 redirect.

Questions the author answers
Can I create my own custom redirects?
Yes. The Redirects page lets you create unlimited custom redirects with exact, prefix or regex matching and your choice of redirect type (301, 302, 307 and more). Each redirect can be toggled active/inactive and shows a hit counter.
What happens to 404 errors I don’t have a redirect for?
You can set a global fallback that automatically redirects every remaining 404 error to your homepage, a chosen page, or any URL, using the redirect type you prefer. If you’d rather leave them, every 404 is still logged so you can review and fix it.
Does this slow down my site?
No. The plugin only does work on a 404 request, so normal, healthy page loads aren’t touched at all. Custom redirects use a hashed, indexed lookup for near-instant matching.
How do I tell which 404 errors are worth fixing?
Sort the log by hits, then use the referrer source filter. A 404 with traffic and a referrer from your own site is a broken link in your content. One with a referrer from another site is an inbound link worth redirecting. One with no referrer at all is usually a bot or a typed URL, and often safe to ignore.
Can I import or export my redirects and logs?
Yes, and it’s all built in with nothing extra to install. Settings → Import/Export does a bulk redirect import from a CSV file or another redirect plugin, and exports your settings as JSON. The Logs page exports your 404 error log as a filter-aware CSV, and Email Reports can send that CSV to you on a schedule.
Where do I find the 404 log and redirect settings?
Everything lives under 404 to 301 → Settings, split into four tabs. Redirects holds the default 404 redirect and the URL-guessing controls, 404 Logs holds logging, exclusions and log cleanup, Notifications holds email alerts and scheduled reports, and Import/Export handles CSV and JSON.
Latest changelog entry
- Fix: On sites whose admin is in a language that translates the “Redirects” menu, such as Dutch, the 404 Logs, Settings and About Us pages were blank.
- Fix: On a server running an outdated version of PHP or WordPress, the admin could crash instead of showing the notice asking you to update.
- Updated: 404 to 301 now requires WordPress 6.6 or higher.

Read from the WordPress.org plugin API on , when WordPress 7.1.4 was the current release. WordPress.org rounds active installs into buckets. These are the directory's figures, not my verdict, and I haven't tested this plugin.
