  3. If desired, change the slug from the ‘Permalinks’ screen in WordPress.

FAQ

Can I redirect to something other than a post?

This plugin worked great until sometime in the last year, it no longer functions with the newest versions of WP. Can we get a working update?

This is exactly what I was looking for. Direct link to the latest post on my blog, perfect for the "link in bio" on Instagram! 🙂
