For LocalMask remember that you don’t need to put the full URL for your site. Just type the extended part. Fore example if your blog name was skyblue-soft.com and you want to have the URL http://skyblue-soft.com/recommends/coaching pointing to http://coachingwithcraig.com then you would put ‘recommends/coaching’ in your localmask column. You CAN put the full URL to your site, but it’s not needed or recommended.

You can Edit, Delete or Reset Rows as either a Bulk action or single column action. For bulk actions, just click the corresepoding checkbox, and then from the dropdown menu, select your bulk action and click
