I've been struggling to do 301 redirects, and none of the existing topics helps.
I need to make redirects with .htaccess for the following pages:
Redirect 301 http://www.mypage.com/?q=company/contacts http://www.mypage.com/contacts
Redirect 301 http://www.mypage.com/?q=product/new/ghz/name-5 http://www.mypage.com/name-5
I know that I should use rewrite rules and specify {QUERY-STRING} and believe me, I've tried. Nothing helps.
Matching against the actual request:
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /\?q=company/contacts
RewriteRule ^$ http://www.mypage.com/contacts? [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /\?q=product/new/ghz/name-5
RewriteRule ^$ http://www.mypage.com/name-5? [R=301,L]
Or the query string (this matches rewritten URIs)
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^q=company/contacts$
RewriteRule ^$ http://www.mypage.com/contacts? [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^q=product/new/ghz/name-5$
RewriteRule ^$ http://www.mypage.com/name-5? [R=301,L]

I saw similar topics but couldn't find a practical answer to my problem.
I'm moving my old website to a new one, and some URLs are changing.
I would like to make a generic 301 redirection to the new domain (because most paths are the same), while individually redirecting some URLs.
Here is what I have on my old website .htaccess :
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^old\.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.old\.com$
RewriteRule (.*)$ https://new.com/$1 [R=301,L]
Redirect 301 "/custom/url/" "https://new.com/my-custom-url"
</IfModule>
But the 301 redirects to : https://new.com/custom/url instead of https://new.com/my-custom-url
Some of my URLs also have URL parameters I would like to redirect, such as :
Redirect 301 "/brand.php?name=Example" "https://new.com/Example"
Redirect 301 "/brand.php?name=Example2" "https://new.com/another/url"
which do not seem to work as well.
Thank you very much for your help.

It is because your specific redirect rule appears after generic one. Moreover you are mixing mod_rewrite rules with mod_alias rules and these are invoked at different times.
Have it like this:
RewriteEngine On
# redirect /brand.php?name=Example2 to new.com/another/Example2
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?old\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^name=(Example2) [NC]
RewriteRule ^brand\.php$ https://new.com/another/%1? [R=301,L,NE]
# redirect /brand.php?name=Example3 to new.com/category/Example3
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?old\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^name=(Example3) [NC]
RewriteRule ^brand\.php$ https://new.com/category/%1? [R=301,L,NE]
# generic redirect /brand.php?name=Example to new.com/Example2
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?old\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^name=([^&]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^brand\.php$ https://new.com/%1? [R=301,L,NE]
# redirect custom URL
RewriteRule ^custom/url/ https://new.com/my-custom-url [R=301,L,NE,NC]
# redirect everything else
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?old\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://new.com%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
Need help ;)
How to redirect this link?
mydomain.com/selbständige?catid=141&id=141:kredit-für-selbstständige-ohne-schufa
Tested with:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(.+&)?selbständige?catid=141(&.+)?$
RewriteRule ^/$ http://test.com? [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(.+&)selbst%E4ndige?catid=141(&.+)?$
RewriteRule ^/$ http://test.com? [R=301,L]
redirect 301 "/selbständige?catid=141&id=141:kredit-für-selbstständige-ohne-schufa" http://test.com
...and so on.
No normal workflow works.
Try :
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /selbst.+ndige\?catid=141&id=141:kredit-f.+r-selbstst.+ndige-ohne-schufa [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://test.com? [L,R]
I used .+ to match against special chars in the uri.
I put in a 301 redirect for my /index.php as recommended for SEO purposes. Unfortunately this prevents any params being accepted.
example.com/index.php should redirect to example.com
example.com/index.php?anything should stay at example.com/index.php?anything
example.com/index.php?f=bar&b=foo should stay at example.com/index.php?f=bar&b=foo
My attempted fix is below:
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^.*/index\.php
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^$
RewriteRule ^(.*)index.php$ /$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s\/index\.php\s
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} =""
RewriteRule . http://${HTTP_HOST}/ [R=301,L]
Turns out the answer for the scenario is a combination of Deadooshka's answer and a POST fix.
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s\/index\.php\s
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} =""
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} !POST
RewriteRule ^(.*)index.php$ /$1 [R=301,L]
I am trying to rewrite my .htaccess file to redirect old dynamic URLS to new ones.
I have tried these so far but they are not working as expected. The second rule seems to redirect to the first one.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mydomain.com$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ "http\:\/\/www\.mydomain\.com\/$1" [R=301,L]
Redirect 301 /product.php?l=old-product-name1 http://www.mydomain.com/product.php?l=new-product-name1
Redirect 301 /product.php?l=old-product-name2 http://www.mydomain.com/product.php?l=new-product-name2
Can anyone help me redirect these properly?
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mydomain.com$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ "http\:\/\/www\.mydomain\.com\/$1" [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} =l=old-product-name1
RewriteRule ^product.php$ http://www.mydomain.com/product.php?l=new-product-name1 [R=301]
Trying to get a simple 301 redirect with htaccess using this code:
Redirect 301 /cat/radiator-cages/product/radiator-support-cage/ http://www.mysite.com/product/radiator-cages/custom-radiator-support-cage/
The results are sending me to
http://www.mysite.com/product/radiator-cages/custom-radiator-support-cage/?page=cat/radiator-cages/product/radiator-support-cage
Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance for any help.
--Update--
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mysite.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.mysite.com/$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^product/(.*)/(.*)/$ /index.php?page=product&parent_url=$1&product=$2 [L,NC]
Redirect 301 /cat/radiator-cages/product/radiator-support-cage/ http://www.mysite.com/product/radiator-cages/custom-radiator-support-cage/
I suggest trying to use the Redirect 301 statement first.
Your htaccess should then look somthing like this
Redirect 301 /cat/radiator-cages/product/radiator-support-cage/ http://www.mysite.com/product/radiator-cages/custom-radiator-support-cage/
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mysite.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.mysite.com/$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^product/(.*)/(.*)/$ /index.php?page=product&parent_url=$1&product=$2 [L,NC]
Edit:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mysite.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.mysite.com/$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^/cat/radiator-cages/product/radiator-support-cage/$ http://www.mysite.com/product/radiator-cages/custom-radiator-support-cage/ [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^product/(.*)/(.*)/$ /index.php?page=product&parent_url=$1&product=$2 [L,NC]
