Status 200 on google, no redirect detected?

[Stender89]

Regarding wp-rocket-helpers/htaccess/wp-rocket-htaccess-trailing-slash/
on the frontend, the trailingslashes get added - but if I do a redirect check, or crawl the website, I get status 200 OK, for both with and without the slashes?

/shop/ - Status 200 OK
/shop - Status 200 OK

So google does not see this as a redirect.
My SEO team tells me that this needs to happen.... :(

I just installed the plugin, do I need to do anything else?

[Stender89]

And activated it of course :)

Interesting. I just noticed this too. Not good.

@Stender89 did you ever find a solution to this? It seems like cached pages are indeed accessible without the trailing slash, and the trailing slash helper does not do anything to resolve it.

I used permalink manager insted.
It has an easy settings where you control the trailing slashes and automatically creates redirects, plus you can completly write you own URL structure with it.
