<p>Provides advanced permalink options that allow you to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Have multiple permalink structures.  Permalinks can be assigned to posts or ranges of posts</li>
<li>301 redirect old permalink structures (many structures are allowed)</li>
<li>Category-specific permalinks.  Posts in certain categories can be assigned a permalink structure</li>
<li>No need to have a base to the category permalink!</li>
<li>Change author permalinks</li>
<li>Enable periods in permalinks – perfect for migrating old websites</li>
</ul>
<p>All permalinks are real permalinks and do not result in 301 redirections.  <em>This means you can change your permalink structure without<br />
affecting any existing posts and without losing any page rank.</em>  Any attempts to access posts in the wrong permalink structure will be<br />
automatically redirected to the correct URL.</p>

<h4>Example 1: Migrating a permalink structure</h4>
<p>Say you have an existing site with the default WordPress permalink structure <code>/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/</code> and you decide you want to change it<br />
to a more keyword-heavy <code>/%category%/%postname%/</code>.  If you change the permalink setting then all your old posts will be moved, and you will suffer a major loss<br />
of page rank (not to mention a lot of 404s).  With Advanced Permalinks you can define a specific permalink structure for all your old<br />
posts and then create a new permalink structure for new ones.  All your old posts will carry on living at the same URL as before, but all<br />
new posts will be created using your new structure.</p>
<h4>Example 2: Category-specific permalinks</h4>
<p>Sometimes you want posts in a certain category to appear elsewhere on your site.  For example, your usual permalink structure may result in:</p>
<p>/2007/05/02/my-review</p>
<p>However, you want posts in the ‘review’ category to appear as:</p>
<p>/reviews/my-review</p>
<p>Using Advanced Permalinks this is not a problem.</p>
