FAQ
-
Does this plugin slow down my site?
-
No. Mirage 404 is lightweight and has zero performance impact on your live site. Logging happens in the background.
-
How does the heatmap work?
-
It groups identical URLs from your logs and plots them visually. The more hits a URL has, the hotter (redder/brighter) the spot becomes.
-
Can I clear the logs?
-
Yes. You can delete logs individually or in bulk. The Pro version adds a one-click “Clear All Logs” option.
