ive been using the custom option of the permalink, in that way i get more flexible with my title, but it should be done before the pages get indexed or else you'll end up with a broken link. and thanks for matt in sharing the redirection info.

Thanks Matt. I tried the plug in out and it works like a charm. (The instructions didn't mention you needed to make your .htaccess writeable when you first do the change, but a little error message popped up asking me to, so it's all good there.)

Yup. That's a very valid concern, and I had the same issue when I migrated my permalinks. I used this plugin:

http://www.deanlee.cn/wordpress/permalinks-migr...

Basically, what it will do is create a 301 redirect from any of your old posts to the new ones. The trick is, you can really only do this once - you can't keep changing your permalinks and hope the plugin will keep up.

But to answer your question, without this plugin, the old links WILL get 404s.

Question time- Currently I use the default setting with my WordPress installation, which I have been running for almost two years. I would like to switch over to the “Day and Name” option, but am concerned about links on other sites back to my posts that use the default version. Will they now get a “Page Not Found” error or will WordPress redirect automatically? As I get some traffic from Wikipedia and IMDB, I am loathe to change formats or am I worrying about a short term drop in the face of long term traffic increase?

I agree – the All-In-One SEO Pack plugin is great…except that the latest update broke on my blog. Once it's working again, I'm going to post more about it!
