Hello (sorry I’m french so you have difficulties to understand my comment
)
I’m looking to use your plugin, but I’ve a problem, the actual domain is http://romainjacob.eu/campingcars60, so when I use your plugin with the domain http://campingcars60.fr, it givea 500 error because the redirection is campingcars60.fr/campingcars60. I wonder if it’s possible by the editor to edit the old domain.
I hope you understand my question. Could you answer fastly please? It’s for a professional website.
@Romain Yes, it requires that your old domain and new domain must have no child directory in the URL.
this is the first version’s defect, I will add this function in the next version, and I will mail you in few days
Thanks for your really fast answer. In fact I tried your plugin on my personal blog and it works really good. I can’t modify something or add a line with the editor? If it’s impossible I will wait… I wait your email.
I’m confused by your instructions. Do I activate the plug-in in the old domain or the new?
I assumed that it should be activated in the old domain but when I went to activate the plug-in, it asked for the url to the old domain but didn’t ask for any info about the new domain.
Sorry, I’m very confused.

@RJ Sorry for my making lillte instructions.
I always update this post
I’m having problems with the plugin. It should work this way: the address “old.com/post” should redirect to “new.com/post”, but what happens is that the redirected address shows “new.compost”. Obviously this causes an error of server not found. Create a fix for this, please!
@Cadu Silva
please tell me your case. I hava no problem in my test.
@WebtoolOL, Like I said, he is not putting the bar at the end of the redirected address, making the top domain to join the permalink of the post, causing an error of server not found. I found your plugin when I was hopeless as to the 301 redirect, since the attempts to .htaccess and CPanel failed, but I showed up this problem.
PS.: I’m using WordPress 2.8.1.
@Cadu
The bug is fixed!thanks
