    I changed the label on one of my navbar tabs (from references to testimonials) and consequently also changed the url to match. But I noticed a few user coming in on the old name which leads them to a “not found page” is there an easy way to redirect them to the new page?

    I found this plugin: “Quick Page/Post Redirect” but am trying to stay away from plugins.

    should i just let it be since my site is new?

    If you’re trying to stay away from plug-ins: Does your hosting control panel offer a GUI to let you set redirects there? Otherwise you can edit your .htaccess file to add a redirect there.
