i'm trying to redirect a page to homepage and cant seem to make it work with .htaccess for some reason
/product?title=jar&id=190 to homepage
i've already tried
Redirect 301 ^/product?title=jar&id=190 /
and
Redirect 301 ^/product?title=jar&id=190 /index
and a couple other redirects but for some reason they are not working
Redirect directive works on URL path only. Since your URL contains a query String title=jar&id=190 you will need to use RewriteRule for this .
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^title=jar&id=190$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^product/?$ /? [L,R=301]

First I need to redirect these pages to another page in a different domain
Redirect 301 /example1 http://newdomain.com/test1
Redirect 301 /example2 http://newdomain.com/random1
Note the pages are not the same in the new domain (e.g., /example1 to /test1)
After that, I need redirect the rest of the pages to newdomain.com
E.g., Redirect 301 (everything else) to http://newdomain.com
Try below rule, using mod rewrite I am assuming you have mod rewrite enabled.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^example1$ http://newdomain.com/test1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^example2$ http://newdomain.com/random1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^(example1|example2)
RewriteRule ^ http://newdomain.com [R=301,L]
If you want to use mod-alias , you can use these redirects :
RedirectMatch 301 ^/example1/?$ http://example.com/test1
RedirectMatch 301 ^/example2/?$ http://example.com/random1
#redirect everything else to the homepage of example.com
RedirectMatch ^.+$ http://example.com/
Clear your browser cache before testing these redirects.
Try this in your .htaccess
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://newdomain.com/ [R=301]
I tried the following code in .htaccess to 301 redirect www.example.com/?content=file.php&id=16 www.example.com/file/This-is-the-title/16
RewriteEngine on
Redirect 301 /?content=file.php&id=16 /file/This-is-the-title/16
But it's not redirecting. The URL remains as it is.
What am I doing wrong?
P.S. I'm not asking for rewrite or so. I need a 301 redirect.
The Redirect directive doesn't match query strings. Use this instead:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} =content=file.php&id=16
RewriteRule ^$ /file/This-is-the-title/16? [R=301,L]
I'm using something similar to the following:
RewriteEngine on
Redirect 301 / http://newdomain.co.uk/link/
Redirect 301 /showcase.asp?showcaseid=1 http://newdomain.co.uk/track1
Redirect 301 /showcase.asp?showcaseid=2 http://newdomain.co.uk/track2
Redirect 301 /showcase.asp?showcaseid=3 http://newdomain.co.uk/track3
Redirect 301 /showcase http://newdomain.co.uk/link/tracks
With that in mind any URL other than the mentione would go to http://newdomain.co.uk/link
Which is fine however any of the other URL's that use a "?" go to say http://newdomain.co.uk/link/showcaseid=1 for /showcase.asp?showcaseid=1
Also with the
Redirect 301 /showcase http://newdomain.co.uk/link/tracks
can I just write as follows:
Redirect 301 /showcase tracks
You can't match against the query string (everything after the ?) in a Redirect directive. You have to use mod_rewrite's %{QUERY_STRING} variable:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^showcaseid=([0-9])
RewriteRule ^showcase\.asp$ http://newdomain.co.uk/track%1 [L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^showcase$ http://newdomain.co.uk/link/tracks [L,R=301]
RewriteRUle ^$ http://newdomain.co.uk/link/ [L,R=301]
Note that the order is important. You generally want the more general matching rules to be at the end.
A new website has just gone live and there is a htaccess file which has 301 redirects in order to direct people from the old pages on the old domain to the new pages on the new domain.
However, because there is a ? and = symbol in the links it's not working.
I understand I'll need to take advantage of the query string, but I can't work out how to get these three examples working.
Redirect 301 /index.cfm?task=what_we_do http://domain.com/services/
Redirect 301 /pagecontent/_newsitem.cfm?newsid=63 http://domain.com/name-of-article/
Redirect 301 /pagecontent/_people.cfm?peopleid=3 http://domain.com/about-us/meet-the-team/john-smith/
Can anyone help?
You can't use a query string in the redirect. you have to use mod_rewrite.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^task=what_we_do$
RewriteRule ^index.cfm http://domain.com/services/? [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^_newsid=63$
RewriteRule ^pagecontent/_newsitem.cfm http://domain.com/name-of-article/? [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^_peopleid=3$
RewriteRule ^pagecontent/_people.cfm http://domain.com/about-us/meet-the-team/john-smith/? [R=301,L]
I should do internal redirects (301) for the list of pages.
Firstly when user opens / or /index.php he should be redirected to em.php, places in root folder. When user opens /contents/about_us/index.php he should be redirected to about_us/enterprise.php
Sound simple but I still can't to solve
When I use this
Redirect 301 / http://foo2.bar.com/service
Redirect 301 /index.php http://foo2.bar.com/service
it works.
But when I try this
Redirect 301 / http://www.site.com/em.php
I'm getting http://www.site.com/em.phpem.phpem.phpem.phpem.phpem.phpem.phpem.phpem.php ...
What's wrong with my code?
Your Redirect is going into a loop.
Do this instead either in a .htaccess file in DocumentRootor in your virtualhost section.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /em.php [L,R=301]
