   I'm using the most recent version of WordPress and the Redirection plugin.

   I set up this link:

   http://ingoodcents.com/all-you-magazine-coupons-april-2012

   to redirect to this link:

   http://ingoodcents.com/resources/coupons/standard/all-you

   I'm finding though that this link does not redirect:

   http://ingoodcents.com/all-you-magazine-coupons-april-2012/

   It goes to a "Page not found" page.

   However, my standard pages (not redirections), like

   http://ingoodcents.com/couponing-for-dummies
   http://ingoodcents.com/couponing-for-dummies/

   Both work and the trailing / is removed, so it finds the right page.

   Do I have to create redirection with and without the trailing / so none of my links break to use the Redirection plugin or is there a quick fix for this problem?

   I'm not sure if this makes a difference, but because I moved from blogger 3 years ago and don't want broken links, my permalinks are set to /%year%/%monthnum%/%postname%.html and don't have a trailing slash.

   Thanks so much!

   This is is huge problem for us as well. It's actually a reason to stop using the plugin. There is no reason the plugin should force use of a regex or 2 redirects to handle the trailing slash.

   Check the Regex option and enter the Source URL as regular expression: /all-you-magazine-coupons-april-2012/?
