Wordpress URL Redirection?

14 years ago

There is a plugin called Redirection that looks like what you want.

It does 401 permanent redirects so you can set it up so that

http://yourwebsite.com/category/technology redirects to
http://yourwebsite.com/technology

Thanks

Agreed, just use the 301 redirect plugin.

Reading this thread reminded me of another plugin I saw a little while back called "Permalink Finder". Whilst it's not something that would cure this particular problem I thought it was worth a mention here anyway (because of the reference to 404 errors)...

"The Permalink Finder Plugin detects when WordPress cannot find a permalink. Before it generates the 404 error it tries to locate any posts with similar words."

Hope someone finds it useful

Thanks

Add this code in head section of your .htaccess file

RedirectMatch 301 ^/([^/]+)/([^/]+)$ http://yourwebsite.com/$2

Don't forget to change yourwebsite.com by Your SITE URL.

Also try Permalink Finder plugin.

Thanks
