README.md

This mu-plugin modifies the default behavior of a popular CMS to stop it from automatically redirecting mistyped or non-existent URLs to what it guesses is the correct page. It is designed for site administrators and developers who need precise control over URL handling and want to avoid potential security and SEO issues caused by automatic corrections.

  • Disables URL Autocorrection: The core function stops the system from attempting to guess and redirect users from a bad URL to a potentially similar, valid one.
  • Enforces Standard 404 Responses: When a requested page does not exist, the plugin ensures the server returns a proper 404 (Not Found) HTTP status code.
  • Improves Security Posture: By not redirecting arbitrary bad URLs, it reduces the risk of phishing or typosquatting-style attacks within your own domain.
  • Provides Predictable Behavior: Developers and site crawlers receive clear, expected responses for invalid links, aiding in debugging and accurate site indexing.
  • Simple Must-Use Plugin: Installs as an mu-plugin, meaning it loads automatically and cannot be accidentally deactivated from the standard admin panel, ensuring the rule is always enforced.
