Just Redirect

Drupal provides url alias support in the 'path' core module. But is has a problem. When an alias to a path changes, for instance when a node title is updated, the old url alias is overwritten or removed and gives a 404. This is bad for SEO! This module remembers old url aliases and redirects them to the path as well.

Notice that the 'redirect' module more or less does the same. However, I got fed up by the fact that loops were easy to create and we encountered some strange debug messages on production sites. The main difference with the redirect module is that this module does NOT provide any settings page(s). It is designed to 'just' work! It simply remembers old aliases to existing content, what more configuration do you need!
