Plugin Description
Custom URL Mapper, created and maintained by Michael Kiamanesh and Grigor Nikolov, is a totally free plugin that allows you to easily create custom URLs on your WordPress site and map them to specific posts or pages. Whether you need to create short, clean, or personalized URLs for a better user experience, this plugin makes it simple to redirect any custom URL to existing content on your site. No coding required—just add your custom URL, select the target post or page, and you’re set!
We built this plugin out of necessity as a way to manage redirects on our own websites without the headache of coding or overcomplicated tools. We’re sharing it for free, hoping it will help others facing similar challenges.
How It Works
Adding a custom URL is simple and straightforward. Here’s a step-by-step guide:
-
Enter a Custom Query: In the Custom Query field, type the word or phrase you want to use in the URL. For example, let’s say your website has a page called “Contact” with the URL yourwebsite.com/contact. You can enter a word like “test” into the Custom Query field.
-
Select the Target Post/Page: From the Associated Post/Page dropdown menu, select the page or post where you want the custom URL to redirect. In this case, you would choose your “Contact” page.
-
Save and Test: After saving, whenever someone types yourwebsite.com/test into their browser, they will automatically be redirected to your “Contact” page. You can create as many custom queries and redirects as you need for any posts or pages on your site.
