### About this Plugin

Try it out on your free dummy site: Click here => https://tastewp.com/plugins/redirect-redirection.
(this trick works for all plugins in the WP repo – just replace “wordpress” with “tastewp” in the URL)

### Static WordPress Challenge

This plugin depends on live, request-time WordPress/PHP functionality such as sessions, authenticated visitors, or dynamic endpoints. Its core visitor-facing features do not work on a static WordPress site. Neither Simply Static Pro nor Static Studio changes that compatibility verdict. Use a separate hosted, headless, or external service if the plugin's use case offers one.

### Frequently Asked Questions

Is Redirection compatible with Simply Static?

No. Redirection requires live, request-time WordPress functionality and cannot operate as a static site. Simply Static Pro and Static Studio do not change that compatibility verdict.

Can a paid Simply Static product make Redirection compatible?

No. Neither Simply Static Pro nor Static Studio can turn Redirection's session-based or request-time PHP functionality into a static-site feature. A separate headless or external service would be a different implementation.

Does Redirection affect static build times?

Redirection has approximately 100,000 active installs. Plugins with complex shortcodes or dynamic blocks may add minor overhead to the static generation pass.

How often is this compatibility data updated?

All plugins are re-scanned monthly. Scans run five analysis passes including an AI classifier. The last tested date at the top of this page reflects the most recent scan.
