I need a few good beta testers to install my Blogger-Archive-Label-Fixer plugin.<\/p>\n

After you migrate from Blogger.com FTP, your archives and labels are all screwed up so any links from search engines or other websites result in a 404-file-not-found error. You don’t want to lose this traffic, so I wrote a plugin to redirect these blogger style urls to wordpress style ones.<\/p>\n

You can download the plugin: Blogger-Archive-Label-Fixer plugin<\/a>. <\/p>\n

I will not upload this to WordPress until a few people test it out and, hopefully, make suggestions for improvement.<\/p>\n

This is from the readme.txt file.<\/p>\n

If you just migrated your FTP Blogger.com to WordPress, this will rewrite the urls to the old blogger style archives and labels to the WordPress category and date structure.<\/p>\n

When the plugin detects a 404 it looks to see if there is a string in the url that is most likely an archive or a label. It then reformats the URL and does a 301 redirect to the correct page. Users will see the right page and search engine spiders will update their indexes.<\/p>\n

== Installation ==<\/p>\n

1. Download the plugin.
\n2. Upload the plugin to your wp-content\/plugins directory.
\n3. Activate the plugin.<\/p>\n

If you are using my Permalink-Finder plugin<\/a>, this blogger fix plugin must be installed first, and then the permalinks finder. It is possible that the permalink finder will find the category name in a post and send the user to the post if it is first on the chain. <\/p>\n

== Support ==<\/p>\n

This plugin is in active development. All feedback is welcome on My WordPress and other program development<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
