I run WordPress in Network mode (subdomain), and I have built up a good page rank for one of my subdomain sites.
If I register a proper domain name for my network subdomain site, and use the domain mapping plugin to take it from a subdomain of the first site, to being a new domain, does WordPress do a 301 redirect from the subdomain of the first site to my new domain?
Thanks.
In the “Domain Mapping” section of the WordPress MU Domain Mapping plugin (found under Settings in Network Admin), there is a check box to turn on and off the “Permanent Redirect”, which is a 301 permanent redirect. Turning it off effects a 302 temporary redirect.
