The Much Needed Category Redirect Plugin Is Here! (Updated for 3.0)

January 6th, 2010 · 69 Comments · All Plugins, Editorials and Features, Wordpress MU Plugins

Just updated for 3.0. Sorry guys. Let me know of any bugs

Now, there is what many category-based themes and CMS websites are looking for:

The Wordpress WTA Category Redirect Plugin

Now, you can redirect any category in Wordpress to any post,page or URL. It is very easy to use, and the function is much needed for the Wordpress community.

We’ll add some screenshots, but once you download and use it, you will love what it does, love how simple it is, and give us suggestions to make it better & work for you.

Also, a donation wouldn’t hurt either:)

Download Wordpress WTA Category Redirect Plugin Version 1.1

Download 1.5 (for 3.0 & Above) here.

Version changes:

Version 1.5

Support for the Monk

Version 1.1

  • Took away the php short-tags

FAQ:

Is this compatible with Wordpress 2.9?

We have tested this plugin with 2.9.1 and it works. We have tested this with the Danvers Theme and the Mimbo Theme. Category links in navigation and in the sidebar are affected.

The Plugin doesn’t work for some reason.

It is my fault for this situation. I am a little fresh to plugin building, and I used short-tags for this plugin. I forget some hosts don’t use short-tags and most likely will be phased out in the next php release. I will have a non-short-tag version shortly ( probably around St. Patty’s)

    3.0 Thelonious has been released.
    Is it just me who is not able to access Category Redirect Settings or are you guys also see “You do not have sufficient permissions…” message?

  • Ales

    3.0 Thelonious has been released.
    Is it just me who is not able to access Category Redirect Settings or are you guys also see “You do not have sufficient permissions…” message as well?

  • Xaine

    Yeah, having same problem here. Since updating to 3.0 Thelonious keep getting a permissions error. Have no idea how to fix this.

  • Goran

    I have same problem. Plugin worked just fine with 2.9 but with wordpress 3.0 I get “You do not have sufficient permissions…

    By the way this is a great plugin and I use it often so hope there is some solution for this.

  • Goran

    I think this code needs to be updated to work with wordpress 3.0:

    unction CatRedr_Admin_Menu(){

    add_options_page(“Category Redirect”, “Category Redirect”, 1, “Category Redirect”, “CatRedr_Admin_Form”);

    }

  • Goran

    OK, I found a solution.
    This plugin works with 3.0 Thelonious and does general redirections including category redirect:

    I was hoping to get a copy of the category redirect, currently your download has nothing inside the zipfile.

  • Cez

    Yep Ales, i am getting the same message “You do not have sufficient permissions..”

    Is there an update for WP 3.0 coming?

    thx

  • Cez

    Is this not working with latest release of WP 3.0?

    At least for me it says “You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.”

    Hopefully you can get this working for the next release.

    thx

  • Chris

    I also cannot access the settings and am getting a “You do not have sufficient permission” message. It used to work on 2.9.2 but not since I “upgraded” to 3.0.

  • Judge

    Have the update. Sorry.

  • Judge

    Yea user number options has been long deprecated. But I got used to them when I started so I just missed it.

  • User

    I have wordpress 3.0 and looks as though category plugin will work with the version, but i’m still getting the message “You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.” Any ideas? Is this working for anyone else? Maybe another plugin is interfering with it.

  • Person

    Does this work the other way around?

    Page / post to category?

  • Judge

    No this doesn’t , but to do that, you can use the Page Links to plugin and put the category url in the page links to spot on the page. Works like a charm.

  • Marco

    The download 1.5 plugin is really the 1.1 version!

  • Pat

    Well, I guess this doesn’t work, nor there’s any interest for the creator to respond to all the messages ““You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.””

  • Judge

    Have you downloaded the new version?

  • Judge

    Only one commenter above has issues. I have sent all commenters the updated version as well as added it in the link in the post. Make sure you update it and let me know if you have any problems.
