Setting up the 301 redirect
Open the Redirect plugin that you installed on your original blog.
You need only to focus on the 'Add new redirect' section.
Here is how you fill in information to set up the redirect.
Source URL
Here you paste the complete URL from the original post as it appears on the blog
Target URL
Here you paste the complete URL of the post as it appears on the new blog after you reposted it.
Group
Just ignore this one. You can categorize your redirects into groups for easier management, but just leave this as is.
Cogwheel
There is a small cogwheel that opens up advanced settings. Default settings will work fine, so no need to worry about this.
Click Add redirect button
Next: Your finished redirection

When moving from a siterubix subdomain, I think SiteSupport can help you with the move of a complete site including comments and ranking.
(Most likely this is not a 'moving' of the site, it is more a change of where the new domain is pointing.)
If moving single posts and wanting to keep comments, you can do an export/import like suggested in a comment below.
I will update the training to mention this.

Hi Jorn, Thank you for your reply. You know I actually had not thought about contacting SiteSupport on this one.
You are right of course that would be an easy #1st question to ask.
Thanks for the tips. I have still book marked this training in case I need it. Cheers

Thanks, J for the much-needed info. I will have to check this plugin to see what else it does.
