I have a #wordpress q for folks with install and mgmt Apache/MySQL. Wanna resolve URLs to old molly archives residing intact on a subdomain.

@mollydotcom do it using redirects in the .htaccess file if there aren’t too many.

@jearle @mollydotcom seconded. That’s how we do it for client sites.

There are literally thousands of docs to manage @brightwhite @jearle

@mollydotcom @brightwhite If you have a list of all the URLs, no matter how many, it can be automated.

@mollydotcom apparently we automate the import of urls to .htaccess file but the mapping is done in excel first. @jearle is that auto too?

@brightwhite @mollydotcom I’d do a database dump of all the permalinks from the database and then sed/awk that into an htaccess file.

@jearle already more server skillz than I have. If I have a manual (I swear, I only read the necessary parts) I usually do ok @brightwhite

@mollydotcom @brightwhite Give me an example URL from the old blog. I think I have an idea.
