  • You can now view analytics per day. Click on a specific day in the chart to view the statistics of that day per hour.
  • We now show a comparison percentage compared to the previous period for your number of hits, active sources & active destinations.

Automatic DNS: NameSilo support

New feature

We've added NameSilo DNS support to our Automatic DNS feature. This will automatically set the required DNS entries via the NameSilo API.

QR code generator

New feature

It is now possible to create a QR code that you can use for marketing purposes. The QR code generator is publicly available and free to use!

By using it in combination with redirect.pizza, you can create powerful dynamic QR codes by changing the destination when needed. No need to print it again!

307/308 redirect types

New feature

Added by popular demand: it's now possible to set-up 307/308 redirects. These advanced redirect types are mostly the same as the already existing 301/302 redirect types. We recommend using these new types only when there is a specific use case for them. Not sure which one to use? We recommend sticking with 301/302 redirects.

Realtime analytics

New feature

We've added a live indicator to Analytics to show how many hits your redirects got in the past 5 minutes.

Recommend root path

Improvement

We now recommend setting up a root path redirect if only path-specific redirects are found for a given hostname. This ensures users will always be redirected, even though a specific path might not be configured.

DNS help improvements

Improvement

We've made additional quality-of-life improvements to our inline help documentation when a DNS change is required:

  • Detect common forwarding services based on IP address and inform that these first need to be disabled.
  • Improved copy.
  • Added label to some IP addresses if they are communicated differently in the DNS zone editor.

On top, we've been also been busy on other segments:

  • Added better error handling to our tester to inform you
  • Improved the performance of the SSL certificate installation.
  • Some mobile styling improvements in-app.
