    Hi.

    So basically I want to change my permalinks, but without destroying the previous I have made, hence I don't want to change permalink structure on the posts already made, is that possible? I do not want to use 301redirects or stuff like that.

    You don't need 301 redirect if you change permalink to old URL.

    Use Platinum SEO or Redirection plugin and they will automatic redirect old urls to new.

    The thing is, the new permalink structure I am going use will not work on the previous posts, I already checked it, that's why I want to keep the old posts as they are.

    So you only wan to change the structure on certain posts?
    What kind of permalink structure is so different that it can't be migrated...I mean for WP there are only a hand full of options ?
    If it works on one, it should work on others. After all you are using the same platform.

    Maybe if you share the new structure, it will help us give you a better answer.
