Automatic Redirects When URLs Change in Content

Scroll down until you see the Automatic Redirects section.
You can either select the Include All Post Types toggle or you can select individual post types using the check boxes.
Now, whenever you change the URL for published content in these post types, All in One SEO will automatically create a redirect.
You will see these listed in the table on the Redirects tab. They’ll be in the group called Modified Post so you can easily find them using the Groups filter.

You will see these listed in the table on the Redirects tab. They’ll be in the group called Modified Post so you can easily find them using the Groups filter.
