Support » Fixing WordPress » Changing Page/Post urls With WP 3.0-Do I need a plug in?

  • Hi
    I would like to change some post and page urls on my wordpress blog now that I have learned some stuff about seo.

    My old urls are too long and include the full post title so I want to shorten the url but leave the post/page title intact.

    If I do this will I lose the back links I have built up to the old url or is there an automatic redirect(I have read this on the net but want to be sure).

    And if my old page/post had some page rank, will this transfer to my new url if I change?

    I have read when researching this that I need a plug in for this; I have also read that I don’t need a plug in with WP 3.0 which I am using.

    Please clarify before I make a mess of my site!

    Thanks a lot.

    Terry
