How Do I Redirect an Entire WordPress Site?

If you have an entire WordPress site that you want to redirect, there are a few different methods you can use. One way is to use the wp-admin panel. To do this, first make sure that you have the blog address (where your WordPress site is hosted) set as your domain name in your hosting account.

Then, open the wp-admin panel and go to the “Migration” tab. On the “Migration” tab, under the “Redirections” heading, click the “Add New Redirection” button.

In the “Redirections” dialog box, you will need to provide the old blog address (where your WordPress site used to live) as the “Old Site Address” and the new blog address (where your WordPress site is now hosted) as the “New Site Address.” You will also need to provide a “Target URL” for the redirect.

The Target URL will be the URL that users will be sent to when they click on the redirection. You can leave the “Redirect 301 Moved Permanently” option unchecked if you want the redirect to work the same way as a normal 301 redirect.

To create the redirect, click the “Create Redirect” button. Once the redirect is created, you will need to click the “Activate Redirect” button to make it take effect.

If you want to test the redirect, you can click the “Test Redirect” button.

The last step is to save your changes and click the “Apply” button. Once your changes have been applied, you will need to go back to the “Migration” tab and click the “Redirections” tab again.

Under the “Redirections” heading, you will now see the new redirect in the list. You can click on the redirect to view the details, and you can also click the “Remove” button to delete it.

Conclusion

Redirecting an entire WordPress site can be a difficult task, but with a little preparation it can be done.
