Switching to WordPress, Can This Help With Retaining Old URL Structure?
-
Hi all,
Right now I’ve been assigned with finding solutions for a proposed move to WordPress from College Publisher (evil incarnate, indeed). CP has an incredibly obscure URL structure that will make any automated system for migrating old URLs to WP (and retaining their functionality) nearly impossible.
Take a look with me:
https://www.theclockonline.com/news/view.php/84310/Heart-Bleed-Bug-Ravages-Web-Users-Urged-That 84310, you might think, might apply to referencing a specific article ID or something along those lines. Instead, it is almost completely arbitrary, and every article is a little bit different. Changing the number by even one or two values will call upon a different school’s newspaper in a very irritating way.
So I’m interested in manually pointing to every article. Can this plugin help me with such an endeavor?
