Changing permalink settings

  • Can I change my permalink settings for my blog posts to only affect only all future posts? For example, I currently have the settings with date and post name. I want to change and remove the date from permalink without changing all prior posts. Is this possible? Thank you in advance.

  • Hi there,

    from knowledge, that is not possible. So basically you want /2014/post-name/ changed to /post-name. If you do make the change and I access /2014/post-name I will still be able to access the post (the url will auto change to the new permalink).

    This post on WordPress may help you out.

    Check out the documentation on Permalinks.

    Thank you GeorgeDK,

    That makes sense what you explained, however, my issue is with the share counts that are on my current url with date included. If I change permalink settings my share counts are reset back to zero. Perhaps this is a question I ought to ask Shareholic?

    Yes, the share count drops to zero.

    Of course you can. ??
