I tried the Post Templates plug-in but I am still studying it. I like the idea and I am currently revising my old theme. I think I can make use of this plug-in Nathan. TY!

Nathan, the post template plugin is exactly what I have been looking for – I needed a bespoke post input format. I’m not having much success getting it to work though! I may have misunderstood, but what I have done is copy my existing single.php file and rename it “single-retailers.php”. I then included the code you supplied in the readme/txt file
“” at the very top of this new file. I then uploaded this file into the active theme directory and the plugin files into the plugin directory (although there is no sign of it in the plugin admin area). I don’t appear to have any new options when opening a new post under edit. I’m not sure what I may have done wrong – but if this makes the post edit page customisable – its perfect for my current project. Can you advise? Many thanks!

Makes perfect sense Nathan. That’s much better than the 301 redirect IMO. Great work! Cheers!

It’s similar, but there are a couple of differences:

1. Mark’s plugin uses a lot more code than my plugin
2. My plugin doesn’t just redirect, but actually replaces the URL in the output.

re: #2 – let me explain. So when a user hovers over the link to that page in the menu, they actually will see the NEW URL instead of seeing the link to your page.

Does that make sense?

Is the ‘Custom Field Redirect’ plugin the same as Mark Jaquith’s ‘Page Links To’ plugin (http://txfx.net/code/wordpress/page-links-to/)? Sounds like the same thing.

Nathan, the plugins are awesome. I am a hack who customizes your themes at ithemes for small businesses and nonprofits.

I have always wanted the second and third plugins. I’ve wanted to ask someone how to make that happen in the code. Good news to end the day!
