Permanant vs Temporary Add Redirect

[artcoder]

In the Control Panel, there is an "Add Redirection" feature. It lets me select "temporary" (by default) or a "permanent" re-direction. What is the different?

If I select "Permanant", I can still remove the redirection later, right?

The difference is only the HTTP status code used to perform the redirect (301 Moved Permanently and 307 Temporary Redirect). Browsers and spiders/search engines react differently to each of these.

They can both removed perfectly easily (both are entries in the .htaccess file in the folder you're redirecting)

Ahhh, I didn't know that.. thank you linFox! :)
