    Hello,

    I’m really struggling with this and cant get it resolved.

    All I want to do is set it up so a post on my main page….when you click it, it takes you to a category page.

    I have tried all of the redirect plugins with no success. I think my theme dislikes them.

    My theme is called grid-a-licious.

    Please help, I thought this would be straight-forward, but it’s proving to be a nightmare!

    I was looking at quick-pagepost-redirect-plugin to see if it did exactly that.
    Also looking at this solution:

    function thisismyurl_redirect() {

	if ( is_single() ) {
		global $post;

		$post_id = $post->ID;
		if ( !empty( $post_id ) ) $redirect = get_post_meta ( $post_id, 'redirect', true);

		if ( ! empty( $redirect ) ) {
			wp_redirect( $redirect, 301 );
			exit();
		}
	}

}
add_action('template_redirect','thisismyurl_redirect');

    (should be added to your WordPress functions.php file)

    If you get a solution i will be very interested to hear abt it.

    Hi Avinash,

    Thanks for your reply. I have tried this plugin as well as several others (including redirection) but they don’t work.

    Is there any other method?

    Thanks
