    Hi,

    I had my wordpress directory in mysite.com/WP. Now I am moving the wordpress installation to mysite.com root folder.

    I have gone through tutorials, and in process of getting everything in the right place. However I wanted to know if there is way, that once I move the directory, after that my old post or feeds gets redirected to the new ones.

    Looking forward to your replies.

    Regards
    Lovely

    fixed the issue....

    Old link

    http://www.mywebsite.com/wp/

    New link after moving to root directory

    http://www.mywebsite.com/

    changed .htaccess on root folder

    redirect 301 /wp http://www.mywebsite.com

    It works fine, as I wanted.

    Learning from the other posts, I didnt put any extra slashes towards the end.
    redirect 301 /wp/ http://www.mywebsite.com/

    Thanks for the great app.
