# Permalink redirection

 * Hello,
    I’m using permalinks like [http://www.mysite.com/post1/](http://www.mysite.com/post1/)
   I see on some sites links to my site in the form [http://www.mysite.com/post1/dsgsfd](http://www.mysite.com/post1/dsgsfd)
   [http://www.mysite.com/post1/google123](http://www.mysite.com/post1/google123)
   etc. all kind of suffix texts added to URLs
 * These links return 404 pages.
    Is there any way/any plugin to load the [http://www.mysite/post1/](http://www.mysite/post1/)
   post instead of the error page?
 * Thank you.

 * Permalink settings can be found in the wp-admin dashboard by going to Settings

 * Multilevel permalinks are meant to classify posts by some attribute such as date,
   category, pagination, or tags. May you please clarify what you’re trying to achieve
   with the slash in your permalinks?

 * Thanks Nigel.
    Those backlinks are on other sites – sites where I have no control.
   For some reason, they appear as I said. When a user click on them they will see
   a 404 error page on my site.
 * This is why I want to redirect them somehow. I investigated the issue a little
   more, and it seems the only way is to use a redirect plugin and to redirect URLs
   one by one
