Transferring Umbraco Site to Wordpress, keep same url/permalinks?


We're moving a site from Umbraco to Wordpress and need to find a way to convert the URLs so they still work. The permalink of the Umbraco site is blog/posts/2015/may/ which doesn't work with Wordpress as, although you can create custom permalinks, you can't get the month name in there, only the month number - so it would be blog/posts/2015/05/ and not the month name May.

If there's not an easy way through Wordpress, how can I rewrite urls to change the month name to the month number?

Please help!


Solution

  • I was able to recreate the correct URLs with the following combination of tags under Permalinks > Custom structure:

    /blog/posts/%year%/%monthname%/%postname%/
