Single Redirects:

Navigation in WP:

Yoast SEO >>> Redirects >>> Add Redirect

Type: You’ll primarily want to use the 301 redirects unless this link is going to change soon, then use a 302.

Old URL: URL that you want to redirect from

URL: New URL that you want to redirect to.

*Do not use Regex Redirects unless specifically instructed to, you can break a lot here if your formatting is off.

Navigation in WP:

Yoast SEO >>> Tools >>> Import and Export >>> Import Redirects >>> Import from a CSV file

Prepare the document by using the following headings in this order:

Origin | Target | Type | Format

• Origin: Your original URL path that you want to redirect from. Do not include the domain here:

  • Example: /_hcms/forms/

• Target: The URL that you want to redirect to, your final URL. Do not include the domain here:

  • Example: /solutions/compliance-management

• Type: The Redirect type you want to process. You’ll primarily use 301 (permanent) or occasionally 302 (temporary)

  • Example: 301

• Format: For our purposes, we will just be using “plain”. You will not need to use Regex redirects unless a specific use case is needed.

  • Example: plain

  • Note: if for some reason RegEx is required, please collaborate with Engineering to ensure that the RegEx is correct. Bad RegEx can and will take your site down, so it’s always best to have another set of eyes to validate your code.
