.htaccess needs for rule to redirect

Hello ,

I have page like that : http://www.mydomain.com/name1-rates.html
i wan to permanent redirect it to :
http://www.mydomain.com/name1rates.html

Also needs to redirect all another page have words ( rates ) to index

 

You should do that using 301 redirection. Simply add this to your .htaccess for that particular page:

RewriteEngine On
Redirect 301 /name1-rates.html http://www.mydomain.com/name1rates.html
Redirect 301 /your-oldpage2.html http://www.mydomain.com/

and so on...

 

Thanks eldiable ,,,

it's fine ,,, but name1 i changed varaiable on some of pages as : name1 , name2 , name3 ...etc

I try to make it as this
Redirect 301 /$1-rates.html http://www.mydomain.com/$1rates.html

But not work ,,, kindly can help me in this ?

 

This code should do the trick for you:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^name([0-9]+)-rates.html$ /name$1rates.html [L,R=301] #rewrites all nameX files
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)-rates.html$ /? [L,R=301] #rewrites all other '-rates' pages to home page

Code (markup):

Cheers!

 

Dear Proton thanks for reply ...

but your code not work

 

Interesting. Perhaps you should check few things then:

• Is your web site on a linux or a windows server?
• If linux, is it the apache or some other type of a server?
• If linux and apache, does it have mod rewrite support at all?

To test this all, put some simple mod rewrite rule in your .htaccess just for testing purposes. For example:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^google\.html$ http://www.google.com/ [R]

Code (markup):

After that try just hitting yourdomain.com/google.html and if it doesn't redirect to google then mod rewrite is not even working for your account.

 

Dear Proton thanks for reply ...

Yes sir i have already scripts work with mod rewrite very good as vbseo ,,, games script .. wordpress

But this is special script i programing it ...

and this link : http://www.mydomain.com/name-rates.html

Name : is variable changed every page

i need only remove "-" between name and rates .

this command

Redirect 301 /name1-rates.html http://www.mydomain.com/name1rates.html

PHP:

but i must be write name variable in htaccess to every page

as

Redirect 301 /myname-rates.html http://www.mydomain.com/mynamerates.html
Redirect 301 /myname1-rates.html http://www.mydomain.com/myname1rates.html
Redirect 301 /myname2-rates.html http://www.mydomain.com/myname2rates.html

PHP:

ETC ...

and i have thousands of pages

 

Oh... so "name" is actually a variable, and not a fixed word. So then try something like this:

RewriteRule ^([^/]+)-rates.html$ /$1rates.html [L,R=301]

Code (markup):

And make sure you have "RewriteEngine On" prior to that line.

Basically this example should just loose - in your .html file name.

Additionally, if the above example is not working properly again, make sure your destination page actually works when you try to open it directly. So for example try opening yourdomain.com/mynamerates.html directly in browser and check if it loads at all.

 

thanks but not redirect also

 

I believe the rule is correct, but the problem is related to something else. Perhaps someone else will notice something I'm not and provide different instructions though.
