 * Hi,
    is there a way to prevent duplicated entries of the exact same redirect?
 * we have many web authors and more than 2000 of redirects and its hard to check
   all their entries, so would like the option for a warning to say something like“
   this already exists”.
 * Migrated our redirects from the abandoned and dangerous “_Quick Page/Post Redirect_”
   Plugin to this great **Redirection** plugin and the only benefit the old one 
   had, was the ability to prevent duplicated entries.
 * Thanks

 * hi John,
    Thank you for your response. is there a plan to include one in the 
   near future? Trying to decide if this solution fits our needs as i have to accommodate
   non technical users (web authors) too. Thanks

 * Possibly in the future however it is more complicated to do so in Redirection
   due to the more advanced options. However, I don’t think it’s generally a major
   problem.
