[fr] Only redirect on 404

[gasull]

It would be useful to redirect only on 404 error (and maybe other errors too). So I could redirect to web.arhive.org or archive.today if the page is gone.

I like that idea. Do you have the JavaScript skills to generate a PR for that functionality?

@gasull, would you test #451?

@gasull, would you test #451?

Sure. I cloned https://github.com/SmartManoj/Redirector/tree/404, but I don't know how to install from source. Maybe it should be in the README?

Yes

I don't see the HTTP status code option in the UI. Am I missing something?

Yes, I was on the wrong commit (on master).

It works. This is great. Thank you.

[gasull]

Why is this still open? The fix has been proven to work.

@gasull More people need free time to fully inspect and test the code so we can deploy. So far, it's just you (which is appreciated!).

I could be mistaken (and absolutely no offense to anyone is intended), but there are some things indicating that code may be AI-generated; that's not the end of the world, but requires even closer inspection and testing.
