Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thanks for the feedback. I've tried both (full URL and no URL leading) and neither work. It seems to always redirect to the new "/folder-new/" but the old "/page-old/" no matter what.

For example:

Redirect 301 /folder-old/page-old/ /folder-new/page-new/

results in:

http:///www.site.com/folder-new/page-old/

Thanks. Adding the "#" didn't work. I will try the plug-in. Thanks.

Hello, All. Hopefully this will be an easy question for some of you.

I have a (WordPress) site with the format of:

http://www.site.com/folder-old/page-old/

I have since re-named both the parent and sub-folders to (example):

http://www.site.com/folder-new/page-new/

Everything is working well EXCEPT I am also trying to redirect visitors from the old URL/structure to the new. I have a 301 redirect setup as the following:

Redirect 301 /folder-old/page-old/ http://www.site.com/folder-new/page-new/

--

But it doesn't seem to be working. Not sure if this is something finicky with WordPress or if the redirect is incorrect. Thank you.

We recently launched a redesign/redevelopment of a site but failed to put 301 redirects in place for the old URL's. It's been about 2 months. Is it too late to even bother worrying about it at this point? The site has seen a notable decrease in site traffic/visits, perhaps due to this issue.

I assume that once the search engines get an error on a URL, it will remove it from displaying in search results after a period of time. I'm just not sure if they will try to re-crawl those old URLs at some point and if so, it may be worth it to have those 301 redirects in place.

Thank you.

After a successful CSV submission to Moz Local, the only one that isn't submitted is Acxiom. It says "not submitted, not updated". Why is this? Will it just take more time? Is there an issue and if so, how can I rectify it? Thank you.

Google seems to be rolling out changes to Google Webmaster Tools. I SWEAR I saw our results drop to nearly 0 on the 23rd and back to normal today. I just checked the GWT right now and the results look like normal (no drop) AND it seems that Google has updated the reporting on BlogPosting and SiteNavigationElement. Both of them seem to show a 'name' field.

I am so confused how the SiteNavigaitonElement is supposed to be marked up at this point. If you use an unordered list for your nav should you markup the

• , and should you have a span that includes the name property?
