Hi, I just finished my new website with enfold and put it to my www. It really looks very nice an professionally. :D
The last thing to do is to redirect my visitors from blogger blogposts to my wordpress site. I decided to follow this tutorial: http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-switch-from-blogger-to-wordpress-without-losing-google-rankings/
Step A is fine-all is coming to my new page, but at the moment only at the frontpage. The instructions tell me, I have finally I have to set a php-code to the funcions.php of the theme, so that people are redirected to the blogpost they wanted to see originally.
But I dont know where to add at enfold theme – funtions.php or functions-enfold.php??? And where? at the beginning or at the end? I already tried (after making a copy of the file), but it didn´t work and I don´t want to make any mistakes.
Maybe you could help me-or is there a more elegant way to do this?
At the moment the redirection from blogger takes a while and a strange code is shown for a while…-not so nice. nicibiene.blogspot.de
Thanks in advance

Hey nicibiene!
Instead of messing for such code ( and as you do not need it for all the time, but just shortly )
you can use the following code
https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-301-redirects/
that will help you redirect the users. When some time passes and the google results have been removed, you can remove the plugin.
Let us know if that is helpfull at all.
Thanks a lot
