## Skildring

Permalink Keeper is a WordPress plugin that automatically flushes your rewrite rules
at regular intervals. This prevents 404 errors and maintains SEO integrity by ensuring
your permalink structure stays up to date.

#### Why do you need this plugin?

 * Sites that frequently experience permalink issues after content updates
 * Sites that have migrated content or changed permalink settings
 * Sites with complex permalink structures that need regular rule refreshes
 * Sites that need consistent URL structure for SEO

#### Key Features

 * Automatically flushes rewrite rules (soft flush — no .htaccess rewrite)
 * Prevents 404 errors caused by stale rewrite rules
 * Configurable flush interval
 * Debug logging via WP_DEBUG_LOG
 * Status dashboard showing last run time
 * Multilingual support (English, Norwegian, Dutch, German, French, Italian, Spanish)
 * Minimal resource usage

## Installasjon

 1. Upload the `permalink-keeper` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
 2. Activate the plugin through the «Plugins» menu in WordPress
 3. Go to Settings -> Permalink Keeper to configure the flush interval

## Vanlege spm.

### How often should I flush the rewrite rules?

For most sites, once per hour or once daily is sufficient. If you frequently publish
new content or experience sporadic 404 errors, a shorter interval like every 15 
or 30 minutes may help.

### Will this affect my site’s performance?

No. The plugin uses a soft flush (`flush_rewrite_rules(false)`) which only updates
the rewrite rules in the database without touching `.htaccess`. It runs in the background
via WP-Cron.

### Does the plugin support multilingualism?

Yes, the plugin currently supports:
 * English (en_US) * Norwegian Bokmål (nb_NO)*
Dutch (nl_NL) * German (de_DE) * French (fr_FR) * Italian (it_IT) * Spanish (es_ES)
