 * I want to change my permalink structure form `https://example.com/sample-post/`
   to `https://example.com/%postname%` . To remove the trailing slash at the end
   of the link. 
   Can i do that with Redirection?Is there anything else that i need
   to account for?
 * Thank you

 * I think if you just change it in your permalink settings then WordPress will 
   handle the slash.

 * [@johnny5](https://wordpress.org/support/users/johnny5/) thank you.
 * I have tired to research that, but could not find any documentation. You.com 
   AI did suggest it though.
 * Adding those rewrite rules in .htaccess should not hurt either, right?
 * RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d 
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} GET RewriteCond%{
   REQUEST_URI} !^/wp-json/.* RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [R=301,L]

   In terms of SEO, i guess i will have to remove the trailing slash form my internal
   links too. This should work with your other plugin “Search Regex” i believe, 
   right?
