 * Hi there,
 * I imported a bunch of links into the Redirection plugin and am running into issues
   where some links are not regular expression.
 * I see a way to set a URL as a regular expression when creating a new redirect
   with Redirection, however I don’t see a way to edit an existing redirect and 
   set it as a regular expression.
 * Do you have any recommendations for updating those redirects?
 * Thank you,
    Carrie

 * Hi Carrie,
 * If you hover over a link, you should be able to see “Edit | Delete | Disable”.
 * Click on Edit. Wait for the redirection to load.
 * On the far right of the Source URL field is the RegEx checkbox.
 * Either check or uncheck the box as necessary.
 * Unfortunately, there’s no bulk editing feature, so you may have to do these manually.
 * Good luck! 🙂

 * Haha – I swear that wasn’t there before. 🙂
 * That does the trick. Thank you!
