Keep old permalink when change page from a parent to a child.

Hi,
I had a page (parent) that is in my menu
http://www.mattzito.com/ask-matt/

I moved the page to a child now the link is this.
http://www.mattzito.com/mattzito/ask-matt/

How do I move the page so it is not in my menu (parent) and maintain the original link. http://www.mattzito.com/ask-matt/

Thanks,
Matt

    There are several ways to do this... probably the easiest:

    1) Create a parent page named ask-matt, install the Redirect plugin, add a meta tag to that page "redirect" w/ http://www.mattzito.com/mattzito/ask-matt/

    or a little more difficult, but easier to manage:

    2) You can also do this by installing the Redirection plugin, create an htaccess redirect using that plugin to redirect /ask-matt/ to http://www.mattzito.com/mattzito/ask-matt/

    Have fun :)

      #2 is a better option, if you don't want it in your menu...
