So i have been trying to create a mobile redirect for a portion (service area) of my site. The way the site is built requires me to use the htaccess file to accomplish this. I have the code in and for some reason any visitors coming from Google AdWords or Map Listings are forwarded to the mobile site, whether or not they are on mobile/desktop. This is the only case i have an issue.
My thought was to create a redirect back to the standard site from the mobile site for non-mobile visitors. Will this create a loop or will this actually work? Also how would the code work to designate, if NOT mobile, redirect to specific page. Here is what i have:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_ACCEPT} !text\/vnd\.wap\.wml|application\/vnd\.wap\.xhtml\+xml [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !sony|symbian|nokia|samsung|mobile|windows ce|epoc|opera [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !mini|nitro|j2me|midp-|cldc-|netfront|mot|up\.browser|up\.link|audiovox [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !blackberry|ericsson,|panasonic|philips|sanyo|sharp|sie- [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !portalmmm|blazer|avantgo|danger|palm|series60|palmsource|pocketpc [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !smartphone|rover|ipaq|au-mic,|alcatel|ericy|vodafone\/|wap1\.|wap2\.|iPhone|android [NC]
RewriteRule ^mobile-homepage$ http://www.example.com/homepage [L,R=302]
You want to get rid of all the OR flags in your conditions. You don't want "Not A" or "Not B" (because then only B would make conditions true), you want "Not A" AND "NOt B"
RewriteCond %{HTTP_ACCEPT} !text\/vnd\.wap\.wml|application\/vnd\.wap\.xhtml\+xml [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !sony|symbian|nokia|samsung|mobile|windows ce|epoc|opera [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !mini|nitro|j2me|midp-|cldc-|netfront|mot|up\.browser|up\.link|audiovox [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !blackberry|ericsson,|panasonic|philips|sanyo|sharp|sie- [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !portalmmm|blazer|avantgo|danger|palm|series60|palmsource|pocketpc [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !smartphone|rover|ipaq|au-mic,|alcatel|ericy|vodafone\/|wap1\.|wap2\.|iPhone|android [NC]
RewriteRule ^mobile-homepage$ http://www.example.com/homepage [L,R=302]
The only questionable bit is the first condition. There's not way to logically group that OR everything else.

I recently came across several cloud based services image scraping my website and had to block them based on their User Agent string.
However this would be very inefficient if I had to check my logs on a regular basis to find out who they are and add them to the htaccess block list.
After investigations it transpired that these bots all have user agent strings less than about 12 characters e.g. "moe".
So I was looking for a way to block user agents based on the length of the UA string. But of course you cannot perform calculations in htaccess.
So I came up with the following:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^[a-z0-9./:;-=]{12}$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^[a-z0-9./:;-=]{11}$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^[a-z0-9./:;-=]{10}$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^[a-z0-9./:;-=]{9}$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^[a-z0-9./:;-=]{8}$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^[a-z0-9./:;-=]{7}$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^[a-z0-9./:;-=]{6}$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^[a-z0-9./:;-=]{5}$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^[a-z0-9./:;-=]{4}$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^[a-z0-9./:;-=]{3}$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^[a-z0-9./:;-=]{2}$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^[a-z0-9./:;-=]{1}$ [NC]
RewriteRule .*\.(js|ico|gif|jpg|png|swf|rm|mov|mpg|mpeg)$ xxxxx/hotlink.gif [F,NC,L]
I would appreciate any feedback on this if I have missed any likely characters that could be used by UA or if anyone can see any problems with this approach.
I do have all the other usual image hotlinking in place.
This is to prevent cloud services hotlinking to images from newsletters.
Thanks in advance.
first post here ;-)
My question. How do I redirect mobile visitors, once they view a specific url within my website, to the mobile version of that specific url?
For example a mobile device user visits mydomain.com/thisurl then that url should be redirected only for mobile device users to mydomain/thisurl_mobile.
I have partly some htaccess code that might be a start? But not sure how to do this for a specific url? This is what I have so far (Btw it needs to be https):

I need to add 301 redirect for few html pages on my website. My htaccess file already has a lot of code. How to add 301 redirect without messing up the htaccess file.
Here's what it looks like.

I am using htaccess to create a mobile redirect for my website. Basically it changes mysite.com to m.mysite.com. In the process it also changes the url of images. How can I prevent that? Below is the code I am using.
# turn on rewrite engine
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/blog/
# only detect smart phone devices if we are not on mobile site
# to prevent redirect looping

You can add this, line before the last RewriteRule:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.(?:gif|jpe?g|png)$ [NC]
To exclude all files with .gif .jpeg .jpg .png
Do not forget after to use absolute links for those images.
I have a mobile version of a site http://www.m.fdl.de/
and a desktop version http://www.fdl.de/
With a .htaccess redirect I link all mobile users to the mobile version, what is running nice.
On my mobile Site I set a link in the footer that should link back to the desktop version.
I tried it with several .htaccess solutions I found on stackoverflow but with no success.
my link is always linking me back to the mobile site.
This is my .htaccess . I found it on this post: Mobile Redirect using htaccess
