Full regular expression support

Remember that if the source URL is a regular expression then you must enable the regular expression option, otherwise Redirection will just treat you source URL as plain text.

Video SEO is mostly a technical thing, assuming you already have video content. It offers absolutely great opportunities because it allows you to appear in the search result pages with a video snippet, which includes an image and therefore attracts far more attention and clicks then a "normal" search result.

What does your Video SEO plugin actually do? It goes through a series of steps, as soon as you update a post that you put a video in: It recognises the video and, depending on whether it's a self-hosted video or hosted on a site like Vimeo, determines what to do; If it's for instance hosted on Vimeo, it'll retrieve the video details from the Vimeo API; It'll determine which thumbnail to attach to the video and what the duration of the video is; It then saves all this metadata so that you get a video snippet in the snippet preview AND a video XML sitemap entry is generated for the post / page. It does all that on the fly, as soon as the plugin is activated you only have to add a video to a post and it'll automatically recognize it and go through those steps for you.

if you are serious about video production for your WordPress site and stand to profit from increased rankings and click-throughs, you should strongly consider purchasing Video SEO

Redirections are automatically created when a post URL changes, and it is a lot easier to manually add redirections than to hack around a .htaccess. You also get the added benefit of being able to keep track of 404 errors.

The best solution, honestly, is to install another plugin by Mark Jaquith, called Manual Control for Jetpack. This disables Jetpack automatic activation of new modules. Now you at least have to manually do something for stuff to break on your site when the Jetpack team decides to push new stuff.

Awesome! This worked for me too, when I was trying to create a special sidebar for the front page. is_front_page() was not working and I couldn't figure out why. I put <?php wp_reset_query(); ?> as the first line in my sidebar and all is now well. Thanks!!!!
