If you are having problems with redirects visit your permalinks page to flush your rewrite rules by visiting your permalinks settings page (no save needed). New: A cookie is added and deleted when you toggle the bar open and closed. Depending on the position of the bar when you leave the page is where it will be when you re-visit the site.

If you’re getting 404 issues when visiting the permalink page, please refer to the FAQ section. Future Releases This plugin is brand new...
