1000StartupHacks

Sorry I thought you were using that function intentionally.

Oh, no. I was adding those lines and I simply copy pasted the previous line of code and it had that function. Lol.

It worked. Thanks for all your help @anevins. Much appreciated. 🙂

It is not a free ww.wp.xz.cn theme. I am adding the complete 404.php code if it helps –

<?php get_header(); ?>
    <div class="container">
		<?php
			echo '<img src="https://www.1000startuphacks.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/404-hack-1000startuphacks-dot-com-1170x566.png" class="aligncenter" width="658" height="318" title="404 Hack" alt="404 Hack" /><br/><br/>';
		?>
		<div id="main">
            <div class="error-page">
				<h1>404 Hack</h1>
				<p><?php esc_html_e( 'It seems we couldn&rsquo;t find what you&rsquo;re looking for. Try using the search bar below.', 'thsh7' ); ?></p>
				<?php get_search_form(); ?><br/><br/>
				<p><?php esc_html_e( 'If you think you&rsquo;re seeing this page in error, kindly send us an email [email protected] with the above URL.', 'thsh7' ); ?></p>
				<p><?php esc_html_e( 'Maybe you&rsquo;re visiting  a hack that has not been published yet?', 'thsh7' ); ?></p>
				<p><?php esc_html_e( 'For receiving new hacks by email, subscribe <a href="https://1000startuphacks.com/subscribe">here</a>.', 'thsh7' ); ?></p>
			</div>
        </div>
    </div>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

Since I can’t wait for too long and there are chances of slowing down the site due to 1000 redirects at a time, modifying the 404.php page of the theme (as suggested by Freddie) sounds logical. I hope that would be easy to do though.

Thanks @fmixell and @bcworkz for your replies. I really appreciate your help. 🙂

@bcworkz

Mod-rewrite supports regexp, so if all of your links really have the form “hacks-*” and no links you do NOT want redirected have such a form, then all redirects can be managed with one rule.

I am sorry but it’s a bit unclear to me, as to what you are trying to say.
