One to one redirect not working

Archives Blogger To WordPress
#1

Migration from blogger to wordpress successful, but links for redirected posts have garbage in the middle.

Blogspot permalink http://jillhughey.blogspot.com/2014/07/home-fires-on-first-sight-saturday

Wordpress link for same post: http://www.jillhughey.com/2014/07/home-fires-on-first-sight-saturday.html

Link created by plug-in: http://www.jillhughey.com/?b2w=http%3A%2F%2Fjillhughey.blogspot.com%2F2014%2F07%2Fhome-fires-on-first-sight-saturday.html

Also, after completing all of this, can I change my Wordpress custom permalink setting, or will that break the one to one redirect?

@Jill Hughey
The redirection is working fine for me. I think you have fixed that issues yourself. :slight_smile:

Hit or miss. This link isn’t working for me, for example, but many are.

Also, can I change the permalink structure on Wordpress or will that ruin the one to one redirect? Thank you for your help and this plug-in.

It seems like that post is not imported into the WordPress blog OR the custom fields are not imported into WordPress. Check such field into that post editor.
blogger_blog
blogger_permalink

If these fields are missing, then you may need to re-import content again.

Can I change the perma-link structure on the Wordpress site without disturbing the one to one redirect?

This is the link on the wordpress location for the post I mentioned in my last message. So, it is definitely there. I’m not sure what you mean by “custom fields” not imported.

Yes, you can change the permalink structure, but I can recommend to keep .html permalink as per the blogger blog post to keep your seo juice.

The custom fields you can find in post editor, something like attached image.
