    Hi,

    I have a blog post on my website that the url has changed.
    It used to be
    http://www.photoblog.ie/2012/07/31/love-me-tender/

    But I changed the pemralinks design so now it's http://www.photoblog.ie/love-me-tender/

    I still get a lot of hits to the first url which doesn't exist. I tried to create a new post with that url but Wordpress removes the '/'
    Anyone able to tell me if there's anything I can do, besides changing the permalink structure back to the old one?
    the only option I can think of is to find the sources of the traffic and try to update the url. But some of the sources are in forums so I can't edit the posts.

    Thanks,
    Patrick.
