Active Installs

23/30

100,000 active installs is a healthy mid-tier user base: well past niche adoption but a long way from the multi-million installs of mass-use plugins, so the score caps out below the top tier.

Update Freshness

25/25

The plugin was updated on 2026-04-04 and explicitly tested against WordPress 6.9.4 with a 6.8 minimum, which is the cleanest maintenance signal you can ask for right now.

User Rating

15/15

157 ratings averaging 98/100 is an unusually strong approval score for this category, so user sentiment is solidly positive across the small sample.

Support Health

8/15

Zero open support threads and zero resolved threads means there is nothing to score against, and the plugin author does not appear to operate a public support forum worth measuring, which is the one weak spot.

WP Compatibility

15/15

Tested up to WordPress 6.9.4 and PHP 7.4+, which covers current core releases and most managed hosting stacks without any flags.

What It Does

Page Links To lets you repoint any WordPress page, post, custom post type, or CPT entry so its permalink goes to a URL you choose instead of its normal content. You point an on-site page at an external URL, an internal resource, or a different spot on your site, and the plugin makes that target the new destination without 301 redirect baggage. It works at the permalink layer so the original slug keeps its place in menus, sitemaps, and internal links.

Who It's For

This is a fit for anyone who wants a clean WordPress URL on a navigation menu, a hub page, or a directory card that actually opens an external resource, an affiliate offer, an external booking page, or a partner site. Resource curators, link directories, landing page aggregators, multi-location businesses pointing at individual storefront pages, and SaaS tools linking to third-party products will all get straightforward value. If your site model treats WordPress as a navigation layer over off-site content, this plugin fits that workflow.

Who Should Skip It

If you only need server-level 301 redirects for a handful of old URLs, the Redirection plugin or your .htaccess does the job without adding a database entry per page. Developers comfortable writing a small custom field and a pre_get_posts or page_link filter can replicate this behaviour in a few lines of code and skip the plugin entirely.

The Bottom Line

Page Links To is a focused, well-maintained utility that does one job and does it cleanly, scoring 84.59/100 with almost no real downside beyond a thin support footprint. For anyone building navigation hubs, link directories, or off-site promotion pages inside WordPress, it is a strong, low-risk choice. Just be honest about whether you actually need to repoint page URLs, or whether a basic redirect plugin will do.
