 * So I read the patch notes of version 7 where you stated that you moved the option
   to redirect media pages into the search console appearance and that is activated
   by default. Well, it doesn’t seem to be this way for me.
    Is this still enabled
   by default or have you removed it? Where do I set it up when I don’t have the
   search console activated? It feels like yoast is forcing the user to use the 
   search console.

 * Hey @insomnia88,
 * We apologize for the confusion, the feature to redirect media attachment pages
   to the actual media files has been moved to SEO → Search Appearance → Media (
   as in [this guide](https://kb.yoast.com/kb/redirect-image-attachment-urls/)).
   You do not have to use the Search Console to use this feature.
