301 Re-Direct for the first time

1 replies
For the first time, I'm needing to redirect one page to a new page. I switched to a new theme and messed around changing things too much, and now the url of my domain goes not to the new homepage, but to a "page not found", that does, however, have a list of my current posts and pages and tags.

So, I installed what looked like a good plug-in (for the latest versions of wordpress), and followed the directions for doing a 301 redirect.

Nothing is happening.

Is this supposed to be instantaneous or do you have to wait a certain length of time for the new page to show up?

Is there anything else I should be doing, like with the sitemap, or whatever?

    Now, without changing anything, I'm getting a Error 404 Not Found message, but on a page with my sidebar showing exactly as I just finishing arranging it a minute ago on the new page I'm praying will show up.

    Does this mean I'll soon see the whole page?
