Hey Tony. If you’ve redirected all traffic from the old domain instead of just the home page, you should then be able to intercept those requests on your new site with the plugin. Try searching for ‘.htaccess domain redirect’ and make sure you’re implementing rules that will forward all requests to the new site. If you want to email me a specific example of a page on your old site and where you want it to go on the new site I can give you specific help with that part of it, too. There’s an email form over on the contact page.

nice plug-in, but i wonder if its possible to use it for what i need. i have an old website (outside of wordpress) where i’ve placed a .htaccess file to carry out the 301 rd’s. however it only workd with the main page of the old site and the other pages redirect to my new site but show as 404 errors – I’ve tried your plugin to fix this but it doesnt. when i think about it how can it – it doesnt have access to my old site – any ideas how i can fix the prob.

here’s hoping,
Tony

Hi Brian,
If I’m following you, that would require wildcard support, which is coming some day but isn’t available yet.

Can this also handle old URLs with querystrings that cannot be redirected with a simple 301 redirect?

Hi Kris,
In order to redirect an entire domain, it’s best to have your web host set up a 301 redirect in an .htaccess file. If that’s not an option you can set up wordpress at the old domain and use the plugin to set “/” as the request and “http://www.camillaworden.com” as the destination. This won’t redirect sub-pages, however, so I wouldn’t advise it unless having your web host help you with .htaccess is totally out of the question.

Hi Scott,
Thanks for the plugin – but I must be missing something.

I have a site:
http://www.camillaworden.com, which now has an extra domains the client bought:
http://www.camillalandscapedesign.com.

Trying to make sure when a user goes to
http://www.camillalandscapedesign.com
they are redirected to
http://www.camillaworden.com.

I haven’t been successful in doing this yet! Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks, KH

You’re welcome! To remove a redirect just clear out both fields on that row and save. It will remove any empty rows automatically.

Hello,

Thanks for a terrific plugin!

Question: I’m receiving redirect loop errors, most likely redirecting a redirect (not sure).

How do I undo a redirect?
