As I mentioned in the previous post, I found a plugin which can let you change your permalinks without losing the traffic you’re already getting to your blog. This plugin actually redirect the old permalinks to the new permalinks of the same post.
Many people want to change their permalink structure,for example, from /%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/ to /%category%/%postname%/
But doing so will make all pages indexed by search engines become invalid,moreover, losing visitors from other sites or bookmarks that links to you.
There is a way to tell the search engines (and browsers) that the page has permenantly moved, and that the old address should be replaced by the new one . It’s called a “301 Redirectâ€, also known as a Permanent Redirect.
I’ve tested the plugin and it actually works! Just key in the old permalink structure in the plugin’s option page and you are ready to go~! You can get more info from the author’s site.
