I am using ReDj now for some time. It does everything it promises and more. More? Yes! You want to know something about the extension as you encountered a problem that you caused yourself? Contact the developer and you get a speedy friendly response. Wow. Thank you. The product itself works perfectly fine, has good reporting options (log file), sorting the log file, purging it (handy if you have 10000 entries) and more. The redirecting with macros works too and is easy to understand.
All in all: way to go - keep up the excellent work.

I have moved my shop from one subdomain to a completely new domain and tried ReDJ for transferring customers to the new site.
It's very easy to set up and it works instantly, very nice plugin.

I wanted to change some of menu items and for redirecting URLs I've studies many articles about Apache redirect mode but unfortunately none of them work when SEF is enable.
But this awesome extension can handle any sort of redirect rules. perfect one, Thank you so much.

I have been using ReDJ on a newly-launched site for a non-profit organisation, and have found it very useful for ensuring that visitors to the site are lead directly to the page that they need for event registrations, information about events etc. The extension is very easy to use and works well and its implementation and results have been very well received.
I have been using the free Community version of this component for some time now and think it's great. Does exactly what it needs to do and is quick and easy to install and configure. With ReDJ I can log into Google Webmaster Tools, check reported errors and then within 60 seconds, have a redirect in place on my sites to deal with the problem.
Even better than this great product though is the support from the developer. I had a small problem and he worked with me to solve it even though I was using the free version. That's commitment above and beyond as far as I'm concerned.
Keep up the great work Luigi and thanks!

Firstly I have to say a big thank you to Luigi, he fixed an issue I had with Unicode slugs in a flash, responding and solving my problem the same day.
Secondly this redirect mod beats hands down anything I have tried up to now as there is no redirect that I haven't been able to conquer.
Taking a URI instead of regular urls and combining it with regular expression is masterfull and very powerfull tool. There is a learning curve to master regular expressions but when you do you can have multiple pages redirected from one single redirect.
In combination with tag-meta you got a powerhouse in your hands. 5 stars!

I just installed plugin, activated it ! and Put the redirect URL. The plugin was immediately on the go ! Good Job Professionals. It is very nice of you.
I needed to set up some 301 redirects as we moved our site from an aspx to Joomla site. This totally changed the page layout structure. With ReDJ after looking at the documentation I was quickly able to get 1 to 1 redirects sorted out. I did end up contacting support for General Expression/macro code expression help and was given back one command that resolved about one hundred 301 redirect errors using the lpathtrim macro. I have yet to hit a redirect that ReDJ hasn't been able to resolve.
I've run support desks with millions of transactions/year and Luigi's support is top notch. I was very quickly e-mailed back a working solution to my problem.
The "Errors" page in ReDJ caught a few internal errors with on page graphics that Google Webmasters/Tools didn't pick up which was a bonus.
I'm happy our site went with ReDJ I think you will be too!!

It took me a while to figure out exactly how to fill out the from and to fields, but after that, what an awesome plugin!
As a visitor, you are visiting this page to solve your redirection issue, and here's the right place to be :)
I installed this extension to solve a redirection issue (I wanted the subdirectory of my domain to behave as the main directory),
I posted it on the forum (search for the post "redirect from subdirectory to 1 higher level"),and I later found out that it can't be solved with RedJ.
but let me tell you, the support is fantastic, and Luigi helped me all the way to the proper configuration (although it's not a customization of the extension itself!)
Bless you!

Installed and used everything works well. It's no so easy to understand at first look but you need just to focus on main macro function and spend ten minute to write the correct string for redirect. Anyway the support is great! write on forum, the support team answer you in real time clearly and deeply.
I am a Joomla novice regarding extensions and customizing. However, I was able to install this extension and create my first redirects in less than 5 minutes! This extension is very easy to use, and looks like it has many features that would be useful for advanced applications.
It looks very promising but it did not work for us and I did not want to spend an hour figuring out what we do wrong. It was enabled, configured and URL's where added as described. But the redirection did not work.
After installing Phoca SEF we got this problem of URL redirecting solved. May be we try it again at a later stage if we can figure out how it works and if a feature is added to have all strings redirecting that are set with a filter or portion of the requesting url. Right now every single url of a page that has been moved must be done seperately. Source like /pictures?.... into /pictures*.

I hope you will give a second chance to ReDJ in future. It's not "for dummies", infact the last version supports internal redirect and dynamic destination (advanced features), but is not so hard to make it work. Also, a fresh tutorial is available and you can ask for support on forum (for many users I have solved the problem directly logging into their backend).
