## Description
DevDome Redirect Manager handles URL redirect rules for your entire site, selected
content, custom paths or 404 pages. Send visitors to a destination URL, a rotating
list, a link on the page or the same path on another domain, with separate targeting,
schedules and statistics for each rule. Configure everything from one screen without
coding; all features are free, with unlimited rules and no paid tier.
#### Redirect Setup: choose what to redirect
Use this redirector for a page redirect, post redirect or category redirect, or
select your entire website for a site redirect. The highest-priority running rule
that matches handles the request.
Under **What To Redirect**, choose:
* **Entire website** – runs on every public page for a website redirect.
* **Selected existing URLs** – search Categories, Pages and Posts with a live picker.
Selected items appear as chips with per-item hit counts; drag them to set priority
for the “found” mode.
* **Custom URLs** – enter exact paths, one per line, such as `/blog/` or `/blog/
best-headphones/`, whether the page exists or not. A trailing slash matches that
page and everything under it.
* **All 404’s** – runs on every not-found page to catch dead links. For a 404 to
homepage rule, set your homepage as the destination.
* **Referring websites** – match listed websites against the browser’s referrer.
A domain such as reddit.com covers that site and its subdomains; a word such
as reddit matches referring addresses containing it. Without UTM source matching,
visits with no referrer or an internal referrer do not match. “Only on selected
pages” restricts the rule to chosen categories, pages or posts.
For a homepage redirect, target the homepage through Selected existing URLs. To
make short links, manually choose a custom path and its destination: a short URL
or vanity URL uses a path you supply, without generated slugs.
#### Referring websites and UTM Source
“Only visitors arriving from outside” redirects external arrivals, including visits
with no referrer, while leaving visitors moving between your own pages on the page.
**UTM Source** – “Also match the link’s UTM source” lets a Referring websites rule
match tagged links from apps and other sources without a referrer. For a listed
source of reddit.com, both `?utm_source=reddit.com` and `?utm_source=reddit` match.
Anyone can set this label; it does not verify where a visitor came from.
#### Redirect Method and URL forwarding
Choose **JavaScript Redirect**, **301 Permanent**, **302 Temporary**, **307 Temporary**,**
308 Permanent** or **Meta Refresh** per rule. Use a 301 redirect for permanent redirection
or a 302 redirect for temporary URL forwarding. New-tab opening and client-side
delays require JavaScript; server and meta methods always open in the same tab.
Under **Where To Send Traffic**, choose:
* **To provided links** – enter one or more destination URLs.
* **To links or buttons on the page** – enter a fragment such as `amazon.com` to
find a matching link/button already on the page. You can target the N-th match.
* **To same path on another domain** – preserve the visitor’s path and query for
a domain redirect. For example, `yoursite.com/post/123` becomes `otherdomain.
com/post/123`.
#### Link rotation and traffic distribution
The URL rotator supports **First to last**, **Random** and **Weighted distribution**
for provided links. The **Click Distribution** slider gives the first link most
traffic, an even split or the last link most traffic, with a live preview. **Repeat
List** restarts from the first URL when the list is exhausted.
For basic AB testing or split testing of destinations, the rotator can split traffic
between links. It does not measure conversions or determine a winning destination.
#### How often to redirect
Choose **Every visit**, **Once per visitor** or **After a delay**. For the latter
two, recognise returning visitors by IP address or IP + browser/device, and optionally
redirect only every N-th unique visitor. After a delay lets you set the gap in minutes,
hours or days before redirecting the same visitor again.
**Daily Redirect Limit** – “Limit redirects per day” sets a per-rule cap. Enter
two positive whole numbers; the daily cap is chosen randomly between them. Use the
same number twice for a fixed cap.
A redirect counts when the rule makes it, not when someone reaches the destination.
With Visitor Check enabled, it counts when the pass is accepted, so merely loading
a page costs nothing.
#### Known Bots, Outdated Browsers and Visitor Check
**Known Bots** – “Don’t redirect known bots” is on by default. Matching requests
are not redirected, sent to the bypass link or counted as visitors. Local checks
use built-in browser identifiers and any shared DevDome bot data already stored
locally. This build downloads no bot feeds. Unrecognised bots can still be redirected.
**Outdated Browsers** – “Don’t redirect outdated browsers” skips reported Chrome/
Chromium versions below 125, except 109, and Firefox versions below 125, except
115. Edge is checked through its Chrome version identifier. Browser identifiers
containing Mobile, Android, iPhone or iPad are excluded from this check. Older versions
can belong to real visitors.
**Visitor Check** – “Require the same IP address to continue” checks that a single-
use pass returns from the same IP address and browser. It applies only to JavaScript
redirects to provided links or the same path on another domain, not links found
on the page.
The pass record stays in your database with a keyed hash of the visitor’s IP address
and browser, never those raw values. It is deleted when used and expires within
minutes, with extra time for configured delays.
Visitor Check, Outdated Browsers, Daily Redirect Limit and UTM source matching are
off by default. All four run locally without an external service, as do the dashboard
count and developer hooks.
#### Open Link Settings: automatic redirect or click
Choose an automatic redirect or wait for a visitor’s click. For an auto redirect
with a delay, use the JavaScript method and configure the timing below.
* **Open Link In** – Same Tab or New Tab. New Tab requires JavaScript.
* **Same Tab Link Delay** – instant or a random delay in seconds within a range.
* **Redirect On Click** – wait for a click/tap anywhere before redirecting.
* **After Click Delay** – wait a random time up to 4 seconds after the click.
* **New Tab Link Delay** – instant or a random delay before the new tab is armed.
The destination opens on the visitor’s next real click after that delay because
browsers block tabs that open by themselves.
#### Geo Filter Settings: country redirect and geolocation
Use geotargeting for a country redirect based on IP geolocation. This GeoIP lookup
supplies a country code for geo targeting; a geo IP redirect can include or exclude
listed countries.
* **Test geo service** – check that the service is reachable from your server before
relying on it.
* **Geo Filtering** – enable or disable the country filter; off by default.
* **Filter mode** – redirect only listed countries or everyone except them. If
the country cannot be resolved, an “except listed” blacklist rule does not redirect
that visitor.
* **Site Behind Proxy / CDN** – behind Cloudflare or another proxy, enable “Trust
forwarded IP headers” to use the real visitor IP for country lookup. “Detect
automatically” inspects the current request and ticks the box for you.
See External services for what a geo redirect sends and where.
#### Optional Settings: devices, cache and schedules
* **Devices to Redirect** – select Desktop, Mobile or Tablet. For a mobile redirect,
check Mobile; other devices follow **Not Redirected Visitors**.
* **Purge Page Cache On Save** – clear cached copies of targeted pages when saving/
running a rule so it takes effect immediately. Supports WP Rocket, LiteSpeed
Cache, W3 Total Cache, WP Super Cache, WP Fastest Cache, SiteGround Optimizer,
WP-Optimize, Cache Enabler, Hummingbird and Breeze.
* **Not Redirected Visitors** – Leave On Page or Send To Bypass Link, using a URL
you choose.
* **Schedule Mode** – Always Active or Custom Schedule, with a run time, selected
weekdays and up to three specific time windows.
#### Optional Settings: visitor exclusions
Exclude your own address, selected browsers or logged-in roles such as Administrator.
* **Excluded IP Addresses** – one IPv4 or IPv6 address or CIDR range per line.
This cannot stop bots that change address on every visit.
* **Excluded Browser Strings** – skip User-Agent strings containing listed text,
ignoring upper and lower case. Entries under 5 characters are not saved.
* **Excluded User Roles** – skip logged-in users with a ticked role. A page cache
may still serve a stored redirect.
All three exclusions are per rule and off by default. Matching visitors see the
page as usual and are counted with skipped bots.
#### Rules, run state and link tracking
Add, duplicate, delete, start and stop rules independently. Each has a nickname
and priority; drag rules to reorder redirections.
* **Save & Run** starts a rule; **Stop** stops it. Live status shows Running/Stopped,
run time and time left.
* **Save Settings** saves without changing run state. **Return to Default** resets
the current rule’s settings.
* **Reset Stats** clears the current rule’s statistics and rotation position, but
not today’s daily-limit count.
* **Export** downloads every rule and its configuration as JSON, without statistics
or run state. **Import** replaces every rule on the site; imported rules arrive
stopped.
Each rule records visitors, page views, unique users, unique IPs, redirects, bypassed
visitors, device and country counts, and source/destination breakdowns, with a time-
range filter. As a link tracker, it provides link tracking for rule activity, not
confirmation that visitors reached a destination.
**Bots Skipped** includes bot matches, outdated-browser matches, IP address, browser
string and user role exclusions, and expired or mismatched Visitor Check passes.
The DevDome dashboard totals these across rules. It is not a count of confirmed
bots.
#### Developer hooks
* `devdredi_redirect_target` filters destinations for provided links and same-path
redirects.
* `devdredi_pass_bind_address` filters the address a Visitor Check pass is bound
to, for example a network range instead of an exact address.
* `devdredi_redirected` responds to redirect events.
These hooks do not confirm arrival at the destination.
### AI and Agent Support
On WordPress 6.9+, compatible AI agents and MCP clients can use WordPress Abilities
when your site exposes them, for example through the WordPress MCP Adapter. Abilities
cover rule configuration, statistics, content search, 404 suggestions with DevDome
Link Monitor, geo status, export and rule management. Administrator access is required.
New fields are `skip_ips`, `skip_user_agents`, `skip_roles`, `visitor_check`, `skip_old_browsers`,`
daily_limit_enabled`, `daily_limit_min`, `daily_limit_max` and `referrer_utm_scan`.
A list entry that is not valid is refused and nothing is changed; a list with entries
switches its exclusion on, an empty list switches it off. Statistics include `bots_skipped`.
Agents must obtain user agreement and send `confirm: true` when turning an enabled
Visitor Check or Outdated Browsers setting off. Turning Known Bots off does not
currently require that flag.
New rules start stopped unless requested otherwise. Updates are all or nothing.
Enabling geo targeting, deleting rules and resetting statistics also require confirmation.
### External services
**Plugin catalog (`devdome.com`).** The DevDome Dashboard inside wp-admin fetches
the list of DevDome plugins (names, descriptions, logos, links, WordPress.org slugs)
from `https://devdome.com/wp-plugins/catalog.json` at most once every 12 hours,
so the list stays current. Only the bundled core version is sent in the request;
no site or visitor data. Service provider: DevDome. Terms: https://devdome.com/terms-
of-service Privacy policy: https://devdome.com/privacy-policy
This plugin can talk to two DevDome services, both optional and described below.
Service provider for both: DevDome. Terms of service: https://devdome.com/terms-
of-service . Privacy policy: https://devdome.com/privacy-policy .
#### Geo lookup (api.devdome.com/geo-resolve)
The plugin connects to the DevDome geo-resolution service only when you use the
optional **Geo Filter** feature. With Geo Filtering turned off (the default), the
plugin does not contact this service.
What it is used for: turning a visitor’s IP address into a two-letter country code
so a rule can include or exclude countries.
What is sent and when:
* When a rule with Geo Filtering enabled handles a front-end request, the visitor’s
IP address is sent to `https://api.devdome.com/geo-resolve/classify` (POST, body`{"
ips":[]}`) to look up a country code. Results are cached so the same IP is
not looked up repeatedly.
* The **Test geo service** button requests `https://api.devdome.com/geo-resolve/
health` to check availability. No visitor data is sent.
* The **Detect automatically** (proxy/CDN) button runs locally on your server and
sends no data to any external service.
#### Bot detection feeds (api.devdome.com/bot-protection)
The plugin bundles the shared DevDome bot-detection library, which can download
three block lists so known bots can be matched locally on your server: `https://
api.devdome.com/bot-protection/list` (bot user-agent patterns), `https://api.devdome.
com/bot-protection/asns` (data-center network list) and `https://api.devdome.com/
bot-protection/drop` (Spamhaus DROP IP ranges).
These requests would be scheduled downloads of the lists themselves; no visitor
data is ever sent to these endpoints. On this WordPress.org build the feed downloads
are disabled entirely: no request is made and no download is scheduled, whether
or not a DevDome account is connected.
#### Optional DevDome account connection (devdome.com and api.devdome.com)
The bundled DevDome library can link this site to a free DevDome account. This is
optional and nothing is sent until you press the Connect button on the DevDome screen.
Connecting opens `devdome.com` in your browser to sign in; after approval the plugin
stores your public DevDome Account ID and a site token, and verifies the link against`
https://api.devdome.com/plugin/account` (sending the site domain and the site token).
When you connect from the DevDome Tools dashboard, whose Connect card states this
before you press the button, those account checks also send the slug and version
of each active DevDome plugin plus the DevDome library, WordPress and PHP versions,
so your account can show which of your sites run which DevDome plugins. Sites connected
earlier, or from a button without that text, do not send the list. Disconnecting
sends the site domain and site token once to `https://api.devdome.com/plugin/disconnect`
to unlink the site. Disconnecting also stops the plugin list. No visitor data, content
or redirect rules are sent.
### Source code
All of this plugin’s PHP and JavaScript ships unminified and human-readable.
One file is generated: `assets/devdome-tools-tw.css`, the admin screen’s utility
stylesheet (`assets/admin.css` is hand-written and ships as-is). It is a Tailwind
CSS v3 utility bundle built from `src/tw.css` and `tailwind.config.cjs` with:
```
npx tailwindcss -c tailwind.config.cjs -i src/tw.css -o assets/devdome-tools-tw.css --minify
```
Those two build inputs are not included in the distributed package. Ask for them
at https://devdome.com/contact and we will send them.

## Installation
1. Upload the plugin to `/wp-content/plugins/` (or install it from the Plugins screen)
and activate it.
2. Open **Tools -> DevDome Redirect Manager** (the DevDome Tools menu).
3. Pick what to redirect, choose a redirect method and where to send traffic, then
set any targeting, timing and schedule you need.
4. Click **Save & Run** to start the rule. Use **Save Settings** to save changes without
changing the run state.
No account is required for the redirect features. The geo filter is optional and
off by default.
## FAQ
### Does the redirect work without JavaScript, and why is “New Tab” greyed out or reverting to “Same Tab”?
Choose 301, 302, 307, 308 or Meta Refresh to redirect without JavaScript. These
methods always open in the same tab, so New Tab is unavailable.
JavaScript is required for Visitor Check, new-tab opening, “wait for a click” and
client-side delays. On fully cached pages, Referring websites and Only visitors
arriving from outside rules also use JavaScript to detect the landing.
### My redirect does not fire immediately after saving. Why?
A caching plugin or server cache may still serve a stored copy of the page. Keep“
Purge Page Cache On Save” enabled so targeted pages are cleared when you save or
run the rule.
### Can I run more than one rule at the same time?
Yes. Rules are independent and ordered by priority. For each request, the highest-
priority running rule that matches handles it.
### What does “Once per visitor” mean?
The visitor is redirected only the first time, then left on the page on later visits
until you reset the rule’s statistics. Choose “After a delay” to make the redirect
available again after a set time. Visitors are identified by IP or IP + browser/
device.
### Does the plugin recognise every bot, and what should I switch on if bots inflate affiliate or ad clicks?
No. “Don’t redirect known bots” skips requests matching local checks, but bots with
unrecognised browser identifiers can still be redirected. Visitor Check compares
the IP address and browser between two requests; it does not prove that a visitor
is human.
Keep “Don’t redirect known bots” enabled. For supported JavaScript redirects, try
Visitor Check. Consider Outdated Browsers if excluding older browsers suits your
audience. These settings can reduce some automated redirects, but cannot prevent
direct visits to the destination or guarantee valid clicks.
### Will Visitor Check slow real visitors down?
It adds one request to your site before opening the destination, so some extra loading
time is possible. There is no CAPTCHA. A visitor using the same IP address and browser
continues automatically if the pass is still valid.
### What happens if a visitor’s network changes?
If the IP address or browser identifier changes between loading the page and returning
the pass, the redirect is refused. The visitor sees an expired-link message asking
them to go back and open the page again. This can happen to real visitors switching
networks.
### What happens when the daily limit is reached?
Further visitors handled by that rule stay on the page or go to its bypass link.
A new daily allowance becomes available at midnight in the site’s timezone, subject
to the rule’s schedule. Resetting statistics does not reset today’s allowance.
### Does the geo filter send any data off my site?
Country lookups send visitor IP addresses to the geo service when Geo Filtering
is enabled. “Test geo service” also contacts that service. The plugin catalog and
optional account connection have separate external requests. See External services
for details.
Visitor Check, Outdated Browsers, Daily Redirect Limit and UTM source matching run
locally without an external service.
### How do I stop being redirected on my own site?
Edit each rule that could redirect you. Under Optional Settings, tick “Don’t redirect
users with these roles”, tick your role, such as Administrator or Editor, then save.
This applies only while logged in.
To skip redirects while logged out too, tick “Don’t redirect these IP addresses
or ranges” and add your public IPv4 or IPv6 address, one address or CIDR range per
line. Update the entry if your public address changes. Everyone sharing a listed
address is also skipped.
Matching visits stay on the page, never go to the bypass link and are counted with
skipped bots instead of visitors. Cached pages may still contain a redirect, so
clear the page cache after saving if needed.
### How do I move my rules to another site?
Use Export to download a JSON file of all rules, then Import on the other site.
Imported rules arrive stopped, so you can review them before starting.
### How do I set up 301 redirects when I change domain, change URL or change permalink?
For the redirect part of a site migration, choose “To same path on another domain”
to use domain forwarding while preserving paths and queries. Configure 301 redirects
for a permanent move.
After you change URL paths or change permalink settings in WordPress, enter the
old paths under Custom URLs and provide their new destinations. This sets up a link
redirect from an old address; it does not change permalink settings or move your
site’s files and database.

## Changelog
#### 1.5.5
* New per-rule exclusions under Optional Settings, each with its own checkbox and
off by default: IP addresses and CIDR ranges (IPv4 and IPv6), browser strings(
User-Agent), and logged-in WordPress user roles.
* Excluded visitors see the page as usual, are not sent to the bypass link and
are counted with the skipped bots instead of visitors.
* Browser string exclusions match any listed text, ignoring upper and lower case.
IP and browser string exclusions depend on the visitor continuing to match; role
exclusions apply only while logged in, and cached pages may still be served.
* The rule settings are also available to AI agents as `skip_ips`, `skip_user_agents`
and `skip_roles`.
* For developers: new `devdredi_pass_bind_address` filter for the address a Visitor
Check pass is bound to.
* Bundled DevDome library 1.7.6: the optional Connect card now says exactly what
a connected site shares, including the list of active DevDome plugins. Sites
already connected send nothing new. See External services.
#### 1.5.4
* New “Require the same IP address to continue” checkbox (Visitor Check, off by
default): a JavaScript redirect to a provided or transit destination continues
only from the IP address and browser that opened the page. The destination no
longer appears in the page; a single-use pass does, checked on your own site.
A pass that comes back from another address is not redirected and is counted
with the skipped bots.
* New “Don’t redirect outdated browsers” checkbox (off by default): desktop Chrome
below version 125 (Edge is checked through its Chrome version) and Firefox below
version 125, except versions 109 and 115, see the page as usual and are counted
with the skipped bots.
* New “Daily Redirect Limit” (off by default): the rule stops redirecting for the
day once the limit is reached and starts again at midnight, site time. The limit
is picked each day between two numbers; the same number twice is a fixed limit.
Visitors over the limit stay on the page or go to the bypass link.
* New “Also match the link’s UTM source” checkbox for Referring websites (off by
default): the rule also fires for a tagged link such as ?utm_source=reddit.com,
for sources that send no referrer.
* The DevDome dashboard tile and digest now also show Bots Skipped across all rules.
* All of these are also available to AI agents as the `visitor_check`, `skip_old_browsers`,`
daily_limit_enabled`, `daily_limit_min`, `daily_limit_max` and `referrer_utm_scan`
rule fields. Switching `visitor_check` or `skip_old_browsers` off needs `confirm:
true`.
* For developers: new `devdredi_redirect_target` filter and `devdredi_redirected`
action.
* Reworded the Known Bots texts: the switch keeps automated traffic out of your
redirects and statistics.
#### 1.5.3
* Fixed: country targeting redirected nobody. The plugin asked the DevDome geo
service through a call reserved for connected accounts and always got no country
back; it now uses the open lookup, so allow and block country lists work again
on every site.
#### 1.5.2
* New “Only visitors arriving from outside” checkbox under What To Redirect (every
scope except Referring websites, which already works this way): the rule redirects
a visitor who lands on the page from another website or with no referrer at all,
and leaves a visitor who moves between pages of this site on the page. Works
on cached pages through the same small footer script as Referring websites. The
create-redirect and update-redirect abilities accept outside_only and get-redirect
returns it.
#### 1.5.1
* New “Don’t redirect known bots” checkbox under How Often To Redirect, on by default:
crawlers, monitors and scrapers see the page as usual and are never redirected,
so automated traffic stays out of your redirects and statistics. Skipped bots
are not counted as visitors and appear as Bots Skipped in the rule statistics.
The create-redirect and update-redirect abilities accept skip_bots and get-redirect
returns it together with bots_skipped.
#### 1.5.0
* What To Redirect: every option now carries a one-line hint under it, so the choice
is clear without opening the info icon.
* New “What To Redirect” option: Referring websites. The rule runs only for visitors
who arrive from the websites you list, one per line: a domain (reddit.com) covers
that site and its subdomains, a word (reddit) covers every referring site whose
address contains it. Works on cached pages through a small footer script. Tick
Only on selected pages to redirect them only on the categories, pages or posts
you pick. The websites are entered like the other lists: type, Add, remove one
by one. The create-redirect and update-redirect abilities accept what = referring_sites
with the list in from and the pages in referrer_pages.
* Picking a category under URLs To Redirect now redirects every post in it and
in its subcategories, and picking a product category or the shop archive redirects
every product in it. Before, only the category’s own archive pages were redirected.
On sites with plain permalinks a picked category or page no longer matches every
page of the site.
* Fixed: on sites with plain permalinks the “Selected existing URLs” picker found
nothing (its search request was built with a second question mark and answered
404).
* The URLs To Redirect picker now lists every grouping of the site under Categories:
blog categories and tags, WooCommerce product categories, brands and tags, custom
taxonomies and the shop archive (a shop whose product base is /product-reviews/
appears there). It finds a title, a slug, a path or a full address, a hyphen
no longer ends the suggestions, matches from the other tabs show up too, marked
Page, Post or Category, and the Posts tab also finds single WooCommerce products
and other public content. The search-content ability returns the same results.
* Updates now work when the plugin folder belongs to another system user, for example
after an install from a root shell or by an AI agent. Before, the update failed
with Retry update, or an uploaded zip kept the old version (shared DevDome core
1.7.2).
#### 1.4.1
* Connect fix (shared DevDome core 1.6.6): the connect claim now waits up to 30
seconds and keeps the handshake for 20 minutes so a refresh retries it, the DevDome
hub shows why a connect failed with a Try again link, and the verify file is
served through a query form for hosts that answer /.well-known/ before WordPress.
#### 1.4.0
* WordPress Abilities API support (WordPress 6.9+): fifteen abilities for AI agents
and MCP clients covering every feature: list-redirects, get-redirect-details,
get-redirect-stats, find-404-redirect-candidates, search-site-content, get-geo-
status, export-redirects, create-redirect (full option set), update-redirect,
set-redirect-state, duplicate-redirect, reorder-redirects, delete-redirect, reset-
redirect-stats, purge-redirect-cache.
#### 1.3.5
* Settings: every option now shows a one line hint under the control, with the
info icon holding the full explanation, the same layout as DevDome Malware Scanner.
* DevDome Dashboard: installing another DevDome plugin from the dashboard no longer
activates it, you activate it yourself from its card. Output escaping tightened.
#### 1.3.4
* DevDome Dashboard: plugin list, descriptions, logos and versions now come from
devdome.com, one-click install of DevDome plugins from WordPress.org, Docs link
and Fix buttons, Activate stays on the dashboard.
#### 1.3.3
* Updated the bundled DevDome suite core: redesigned DevDome Dashboard with cleaner
cards, your account email and plan on the overview, and update buttons shown
only when an update really exists.
* One button system across the suite: the same Connect button and the same Save
Settings button in every DevDome plugin.
#### 1.3.2
* Every output buffer used to build the page scripts is now opened and closed inside
a single function, so it can never be left open.
* Removed two manually fired activation/deactivation hook calls from the internal
version check.
#### 1.3.1
* The suite hub no longer installs or activates any plugin: its installer is removed
from this build and the DevDome screen links out to the plugin’s page instead.
* Removed the crawler-specific serving, search-engine hiding, referrer targeting,
referrer stripping, back-button and daily-cap code paths entirely, along with
the log-cleanup routine.
* The settings screen’s styles and scripts are now enqueued instead of being written
into the page, so caching and optimisation plugins can handle them properly.
* Importing a settings file now accepts only known settings and cleans every value
for the type it stores; switching the rule you are editing is protected like
every other action.
#### 1.3.0
* Every feature is now free and unlimited: the rule limit and the Pro locks on
geo targeting, device targeting and scheduling are gone.
* Internal identifier rename to a unique plugin prefix (WordPress.org requirement).
Existing rules, statistics and settings are carried over automatically by a one-
time migration on self-hosted builds.
* Unified DevDome suite icons and suite hub.
