When I first start one of my Wordpress blogs, I had the permanent URL for each post include the date of posting.

The slug format looked like this: /blog/2010/01/25/this-is-my-article/

Later on, I changed it so that the date was not included in the permanent URL, like this: /blog/this-is-my-article/ and setup a redirect plugin to make sure that users would get to the page they wanted until the site was re-indexed.

In Google Analytics, when I review the stats for content I now have multiple records for what is essentially the same page. ie:

Top Content List:

  1. 45 Pageviews- /blog/this-is-my-article/
  2. 24 Pageviews- /blog/2010/01/25/this-is-my-article/
  3. 33 Pageviews- /blog/some-other-article/

Is there any way to combine those records somehow?
