Permalink Keeper

توضیحات

Permalink Keeper is a WordPress plugin that automatically flushes your rewrite rules at regular intervals. This prevents 404 errors and maintains SEO integrity by ensuring your permalink structure stays up to date.

Why do you need this plugin?

  • Sites that frequently experience permalink issues after content updates
  • Sites that have migrated content or changed permalink settings
  • Sites with complex permalink structures that need regular rule refreshes
  • Sites that need consistent URL structure for SEO

Key Features

  • Automatically flushes rewrite rules (soft flush — no .htaccess rewrite)
  • Prevents 404 errors caused by stale rewrite rules
  • Configurable flush interval
  • Debug logging via WP_DEBUG_LOG
  • Status dashboard showing last run time
  • Multilingual support (English, Norwegian, Dutch, German, French, Italian, Spanish)
  • Minimal resource usage

نصب

  1. Upload the permalink-keeper folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
  3. Go to Settings -> Permalink Keeper to configure the flush interval

سوالات متداول

How often should I flush the rewrite rules?

For most sites, once per hour or once daily is sufficient. If you frequently publish new content or experience sporadic 404 errors, a shorter interval like every 15 or 30 minutes may help.

Will this affect my site’s performance?

No. The plugin uses a soft flush (flush_rewrite_rules(false)) which only updates the rewrite rules in the database without touching .htaccess. It runs in the background via WP-Cron.

Does the plugin support multilingualism?

Yes, the plugin currently supports:
* English (en_US)
* Norwegian Bokmål (nb_NO)
* Dutch (nl_NL)
* German (de_DE)
* French (fr_FR)
* Italian (it_IT)
* Spanish (es_ES)
