    Renamed some subforums - how do I redirect the old URL's??

    I renamed a few of my subforums.

    vBSEO converts the URL - the older URL was domain.com/subforum1 and now I renamed the subforum so it's now domain.com/subforum2

    Because I'm not using Forum ID's in my URL structure, how can I make a simple redirect so any references to domain.com/subforum1 automatically redirect to domain.com/subforum2

    The thread URL's are using a Thread ID in their URL so they're working correctly, so I'm more concerned about the Forum URL's.

    Hello Daniel,

    You can use the following Custom Redirect in your vBSEO Control Panel:

    '^subforum1/(.*)$' => 'subforum2/$1'
