I have an album that I moved, but I would like the old links (from elsewhere on the web, so I can't change them) to automatically redirect to the new address. Is that possible?

thanks!

2 modules come to mind:
http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery2:Modules:linkitem
http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery2:Modules:permalinks

Then you can also create your own rewite rules in the .htaccess file:

After further testing, I found that it worked for albums, but it did not work for sub albums.
