 * Oh, sorry, I didn’t see that you **wanted** to preserve the URL. Hm… this may
   be a bit of a hack, but I guess you can hard code the social media buttons with
   the old URLs?

 * Hi Jonathan,
 * Use the redirection plugin:
 * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/redirection/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/redirection/)
 * If you know the URLs ahead of time, set up the permanent redirection to those.
   If not, use the 404 reports and set up redirection from there.
 * Hope that helps,
    Steve

 * Thanks for all the great feedback. I got rid of the pop up, gave it a new face
   lift, and put in an image slider in the top fold to hopefully capture visitor
   retention.
 * The only thing left to try out is tabbed content using dynamic CSS.

 * Thanks for the suggestion – I took out the pop-up subscription box. Maybe that
   will help with the bounce rate.
 * Thanks for the suggestion on ajax pagination.
 * Thank you all!

 * I prefer to see your sidebar beefed up a bit, to at least match the height of
   your main content.

 * startuplift, thanks for your code – I attempted to improve on it by checking 
   we are only doing the text filter on wp-login.php page:
 *     ```
       function remove_password_email_text ( $text ) {
       	if(basename($_SERVER["SCRIPT_NAME"])=='wp-login.php' && $text == 'A password will be e-mailed to you.'){
       		$text = '';
       	}
       	return $text;
       }
       add_filter( 'gettext', 'remove_password_email_text' );
       ```
   
 * Of course, if you have a different file name for your login page this won’t work.

 * To get around this problem, you’ll have to modify wp-include/class.php function
   handle_404().
 * Find this line:
    if ( (0 == count($wp_query->posts)) && !is_404() && !is_search()&&(
   $this->did_permalink || (!empty($_SERVER[‘QUERY_STRING’]) && (false === strpos(
   $_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’], ‘?’))) ) ) {
 * and include negative qualifier for author pages:
 * if ( (0 == count($wp_query->posts)) && !is_404() && !is_author() && !is_search()&&(
   $this->did_permalink || (!empty($_SERVER[‘QUERY_STRING’]) && (false === strpos(
   $_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’], ‘?’))) ) ) {
 * That should do it for you. Hope that helps.
 * [sig moderated]
