do links within the blog update when the blog's url is changed? (2 posts)

    A professional converted my old Front Page site into a blog with a different url than the original site. Few of the links between pages and posts in the blog transferred correctly, and I'm now correcting them. There are thousands of them!!

    When all is cleaned up and corrected, I intend to transfer the blog to a new url through the same host (BlueHost). Will the links adjust automatically. or will I need to correct most of them again?

    Is there anything I can do to fix this issue now, as I correct the links this time?

    Thx.

    The permalinks will adjust automatically if you re-save your permalinks at Settings/Permalinks in your Dashboard after moving.

    For the rest, you'll need to use a plugin like this:
