Hi guys, My wordpress permalink structure is set like so: And has been for many many years. I don't want to lose SEO by changing it to the new structure I want, which is this: Any idea how I can change it over without losing anything in the search engine, or losing posts etc? Thanks for any advice
Hello, add this to your .htaccess file, that should create a redirect from your old permalink structure to http://www.footyblog.net/sample-post/: RedirectMatch 301 ^/([0-9]{4})/([0-9]{2})/(.*)$ http://footyblog.net/$3 Code (markup):
Yeah. Agreed with @Devtart. You can do that by using .htaccess. But it will surely impact your seo value.
Well, I do not think that it will do much damage. I read a rumor that part of the PageRank disappears when you use 301 redirection but I am not sure if that is true.
