 * Not sure if this plugin is maintained anymore, but the entire plugin is just 
   one line of code:
 * `add_filter( 'do_redirect_guess_404_permalink', '__return_false' );`
 * This did not work for us with WP 6.1.x – instead we had to use this:
 * `add_filter( 'pre_redirect_guess_404_permalink', '__return_false' );`
 * If the plugin is no longer maintained… just add that line of code to your custom
   or child theme functions.php or to a custom plugin you maintain.

 * Thank you for the contribution. This plugin can indeed be considered unmaintained.
   Unfortunately, I lack the time to maintain this plugin anymore. If anyone would
   like to take over maintenance, please let me know.

 * [@squarecandy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/squarecandy/) I tried both
   of the filters, but it is still redirecting…
