This reminds me to do what I’ve been planning to do for the past couple of months. I’ve had those 2 plugins in my folder for months and I haven’t even used them yet. I have to get off my lazy arse first.

Btw, glad you got rid of that “unfriendly” permanent link. Haha.

Yup, dupes have been taken cared of.

Yeap, thats my first thought actually from changing my URLs, duplicate content and 404 and stuff.. yours is much more complex though, with /p?=123 as your old URLS.. have you got that one resolved..?

I knew tweaking with your permalinks right in the middle of something is a very serious and tedious business.

Glad I customized my permalinks early on.

@ dude, you can still ask em questions. The old structure introduces a lot of variables in the URL that I was getting duplicate contents all over.

@ jayps, you only need the first one. We used the second plugin with Connie’s blog the other day because the first one wouldn’t redirect the new permalinks from the old custom permalinks.

I wouldn’t have known about those plugins if it weren’t for you Abe. Now my permalinks are prettier and more search engine friendly.

Btw, I only used the Permalink Redirect. Is it okay if I install the Permalinks Migration plugin now or I don’t have to do it? Thanks!

i was just doing a related article about pretty permalinks, and doing some test and experiment and i headed out to your blog coz i know you’re using p?=1 URL, turns out you’re not using it anymore. damn, just when someone actually needs it. =)
