Hey Guys sorry for not updating, with a new client and spring break we’re just getting back into things.

The redirects were there from the original vBulletin import that was done, they were in there using vBulletin, not sure if was internal 301 redirects or how it worked on the backend of vBulletin. 

We have now fixed the issues completely.

We temporarily did 301 redirects on all the post that were formally redirects within vBulletin to the newer posts until we could figure out a method to remove them from the sitemap and also to stop giving the group/post permission error.

In the end, we removed all the 301 redirects, installed the SP Database Cleaner plugin and used the sitemap as guide on which posts had the 1969 dates on them and we click on them one by one to see where the original origin of the post category and used the database clean up to delete them.

It was a long and tedious process but it worked, but now our sitemap is clean and there are no errors.
