Create your first redirect
Move one exact path and check the result before adding more rules.
Choose the old path and new destination
Open RedirectNest → Redirects and add a rule. Use an exact source path such as /old-services and a destination such as /services. Use 301 for a permanent move or 302 for a temporary move; 307 and 308 are also supported. Use 410 only for intentionally retired content.
Save and test
Review the local test result, then visit the old URL in a browser. Check important query parameters. Browser, cache, CDN and server rules can affect the observed response; the local tester describes the plugin rules, not every layer of your site.
Keep changes reversible
Pause, edit or delete individual rules. Export a CSV before a large change and retain a separate WordPress backup. Wildcards, bounded regex and advanced matching controls require activated Pro.
