Greenguy's Board - View Single Post - Wordpress 301 Redirect after Permalink Change

Thanks Walrus

All I needed to do was search for the magic word permalink "migration" not "change, alter, new" etc.

Unfortunately I couldn't get it to work properly, the old posts were performing a 301 redirect to the correct location, however all the posts were returning a 404 error. I'll play around with it a bit more to see if I can figure it out, but it seems there's a few people with the same problems as me.

It's worth mentioning that if you are going to use this plugin, make sure you do it before you change the permalink structure.

Very handy plugin to have.
