----EDIT---
I have just realized that my explanation of the problem was missing an important piece of information.
The URL's should only be redirected if second parameter is present.
So the rule should read:
Redirect any URL that has /d/ in it, ONLY if /d2/ is also found in the URL.
----End Edit__
I have the need to 301 redirect all URL's on a site that contain a specific parameter to the same URL, but with an additional directory included. All of the URL's that require redirection contain a certain directory: /d/ Example:
http://www.mysite.com/category1/d/subcategory1/subdirectory2/
--Should Redirect to --
http://www.mysite.com/newdirectory/category1/d/subcategory1/subdirectory2/
The one thing in common with any of the URLs' requiring redirection is that they all contain a directory /d/ in the URL, which always immediately follows the "category" directory as indicated in bold in sample URL's above. I would then like to insert an additional directory in front of the category directory as indicated in bold in the sample URL's above. The rest of the URL will remain the same.
Can anyone help with this? I'm relatively new to mod_rewrite and realize I can make a big mess if I don't get it right.
Thanks in advance for anyone who can offer hlep
:)
Try this (edited to reflect change in question):
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^.*/d/.* [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^.*/d2/.* [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/newdirectory/ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)/d/(.*)$ http://www.mysite.com/newdirectory/$1/d/$2 [R=301,L]
Try adding the following to your htaccess file in the root directory of your site.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
#if the url contains a /d2/ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} /d2/ [NC]
RewriteRule ^([-a-zA-Z0-9]+/d/[-a-zA-Z0-9]+/[-a-zA-Z0-9]+/)$ /newdirectory/$1 [L,R,NC]

I have a URL like this :
https://example.com/coins/1&order_by=today and several categories such as:
https://example.com/coins/1&order_by=new
https://example.com/coins/1&order_by=trending
You can also change the page so it will be 2 instead of 1 etc.. like : https://example.com/coins/2&order_by=today
I would like to change these to have https://example.com/today?page=1 etc instead of this above
I have read many responses on this subject and I searched the web, but unfortunately no solution works.
I tried this but it does not works:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(.*&)?order_by=new(&.*)?$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1?new/%1/%2 [L]
Try following htaccess Rules, please make sure to place these Rules at top of your htaccess file. Make sure to place your htaccess file inside root folder along with coins folder(not inside coins folder).
Please make sure to clear your browser cache before testing your URLs.
RewriteEngine ON
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/coins/(\d+)&order_by=(\S+)\s [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%2?page=%1 [R=301,L]
I have searched but cannot find a specific answer for this exact redirect style...
I have this structure of URL with this specific parameter:
https://websitename.com/directory/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=cart
I want it redirected to:
https://websitename.com/shopping-cart/
Note that the above mentioned "directory" changes, but the index.php with the parameters stay the same. No matter what the directory is, I always want it to go to the same exact redirect.
I cannot seem to get the right redirect working in htaccess. Can anyone help?
You can use this redirect rule as your first rule in site root .htaccess:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /(?:index\.php)?\?option=com_virtuemart&view=cart [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /shopping-cart/? [L,R=308]
# remaining rules go below this
You can use a set like this. It takes care on the param view=cart
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (^|&)view=cart
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /shopping-cart/? [L,NC,R=301]
If you want to keep the querystring params, then change
/shopping-cart/?
to
/shopping-cart/
without questionmark
I know how to use .htaccess to forward everything in one domain to a new domain name. But in this case, I want everything from one domain to go to a specific .html page on a different domain. That's where I'm lost. I'm trying the following but it just redirects to a folder and the page in question is in that folder but obviously, I don't want people seeing the contents of that folder. Make any sense? So example.com needs to go to yyy.com/some-page.html
This is what I'm currently using:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} (www\.)?5\.xxxx\.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.1.yyy.com/$1 [R=301,L]
Try:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} (www\.)?5\.xxxx\.com [NC]
RewriteRule .* http://www.1.yyy.com/some-page.html [R,L]
You can also put a blank index.html page to the directory in question to mask its contents or
you can put index.php file with this code <? header ("location: http://www.1.yyy.com/some-page.html"); ?> that will redirect a user to the desired page.
$1 is a place holder for the 1st pattern match. So if you are rewriting domaina.com/someurl/, it is attempting to load domainb.com/someurl/. Swap the $1 with the actual page --- e.g. somepage.html and it should work. But unless both of these domains are pointing to the same files/directories, the rule seems a bit overcomplicated.
So how about just a simple redirect?
Try this in your .htaccess file.
redirect 301 / http://somesite.com/somepage.html
OR you can try this.
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://somesite.com/somepage.html [R=301,L]
It does work and you can test my RewriteRule below.

There must be something else going on.
I am writing a multi language website. Therefore I would like some help with a URL rewrite problem.
Case:
When someone visits www.example.com without adding a country code (nl, en, de) the htaccess redirects the visitor to www.example.com/nl/ i.g.
RewriteRule !(nl|en|de)(.*).* /nl/ [R=301,L]
The website is renewed and has got many url's directing to the website (google, forums). i.g. www.example.com/oldpage-nomore.html. What I would like is the following; the htaccess should detect that the request uri doesn't contain nl,en or de and should redirect to pagenotfound.php. RewriteRule ^(.*)\.html /public/oldurl?section=nl¬found=$1$2&basehref=true&%1 [PT,L] the problem with this Rewrite rule is: all files ending in .html are being redirected.
What I am looking for is the following:
When someone visits www.example.com and no request uri is entered this should redirect to www.example.com/nl/
When there is a requested uri and this doens't contain a countrycode (nl|en|de) than redirect to pagenotfound.php
I tried the following but it doens't work:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^(nl|en|de)$
RewriteRule ^([a-z]{2})/(.*)\.html$ /pagenotfound.php?page=$2 [L,R=404]
I hope someone can help.
Thank you in advance.
Try to place this .htaccess file at the server root folder:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/?$
RewriteRule ^.*$ /nl/ [R]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(nl|en|de)
RewriteRule ^.*/(.*)\.html$ /pagenotfound.php?page=$2 [L,R=404]
(you probably made several mistakes, I tried to fix them)
I'm not sure with the first RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} regular expression - maybe remove the question mark or slash, I don't now... can't test now.
I want accesses to e.g. www.thisdomain.com/docs/path1/path2 to redirect to www.thatdomain.com/path1/path2
(Note that docs is not a part of the new path)
I have the following on www.thisdomain.com:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^docs/* http://www.domain.com/ [R=301,L]
If I access www.thisdomain.com/docs, it directs to www.thatdomain.com, but if I access a child-path like www.thisdomain.com/docs/path1/path2 it fails. Is it possible for the redirect to intercept the child-path access and redirect as I need? If so, any pointers?
Thanks.
With regular expressions, * means any number of the previous atom, which will match /docs and /docs/. Try this:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^docs$ http://www.domain.com/ [R=301,L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^docs/(.*) http://www.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L,QSA]
(QSA is query string append, so /docs/foo?bar=baz won't lose the ?bar=baz.)
According to section "Redirect Old domain to New domain using htaccess redirect" of the first Google result which I found searching for "htaccess redirect" (without the double quotes), this piece of code will suffice:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.newdomain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
According to their description of the technique, it will redirect the directory the .htaccess file is placed in recursively (including any child paths), just as you intend. Of course, mod_rewrite needs to be present for the rewrite directives to work.
