How to create dynamic internal links (dynamic permalink & anchor text)

    Hi Rank Math,

    I see that RM can provide link suggestions and copy/paste a link or post title. However, do you know if it’s possible to create a dynamic internal link that will automatically update its permalink or anchor text when the linked post changes?

    i.e. if my linked post has a title like “3 ways to lose weight” with permalink /how-to-lose-weight, and it is changed to “5 ways to lose weight” with permalink /lose-weight/ instead, how can I ensure that the internal links to this post are updated automatically?

    Thanks very much,
    Tom

  • Hello,

    Thank you for your question. Unfortunately, Rank Math does not have the feature to create dynamic internal links as you described. However, there is a workaround that you can use to avoid broken links when you change the post permalink (slug).

    You can use Rank Math Redirections, which is a feature that allows you to redirect visitors and search engines from one URL to another. This way, if you change the permalink of a post, you can automatically redirect the old URL to the new one, and preserve your SEO and user experience.

    To enable this feature, you need to go to Rank Math > General Settings > Redirections in your WordPress dashboard. There, you will find an option called Auto Post Redirect. If you turn this on, Rank Math will automatically create a 301 redirection whenever you change the permalink of a post or page. You can also choose whether to include the attachments and terms in this option.

    You can find more information about how to use Rank Math Redirections in this article.

    I hope this helps you solve your issue. If you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to reply to this ticket and I’ll be happy to help you further.

    Best regards,
