README

Simple script for checking http code of URL list and filter if necessary. Can be easy used for checking 404 codes for site and getting list of 404 error pages.

Usage

The most simplest way

save the list of URL to be checked as CSV and put into the main directory as "source.csv"
run from command line

php index.php

Than list of URLs with codes will appear in file "destination.csv"

Modifying the configuration

All configuration is in main index.php file. Exactly what you need to modify is the filename configuration, so all configuration is on the top of the file.

define('SOURCE_FILE', dirname(__FILE__) . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'source.csv'); // source file with urls
define('DESTINATION_FILE', dirname(__FILE__) . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'destination.csv'); // source file with urls

Origins

This utility was created for migrating project between two systems (like Prestashop to Woocommerce). Every system has different URL generator, so if you do not want to loose you SEO (SEM) positions, you have to redirect all old links into the new ones.

E.g. http://oldshop.com/category-name/product-name -> http://newshop.com/product-name

If there are some similarities, so some links are the same, you save the time with comparing if some of new links are the same as old links (you simply get the list of old links, change the domain and check if the http code is 200)

So this is gonna happen in four steps

Grabbing all URLs from old project, e.g. with http://www.web-site-map.com
Make CSV from XML sitemap with some tool like with http://www.convertcsv.com/xml-to-csv.htm
Save the CSV as source.csv to the root directory of this project
run from command line

php index.php
