    When i install a wordpress blog, it automatically creates an htaccess file and redirects it from the www. version to the non-www. version. In addition to that, I want to add about 10 old page to new page redirects... How would I do that?

    The current redirect is:

    
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.wiifitaccessories.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://wiifitaccessories.com/$1 [R=301,L]
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress
    Code (markup):
    Thanks for your help.

    Insert the following line of code underneath your existing lines of code:

    redirect 301 /oldpage.html http://www.yourdomain.com/newpage.html
    Code (markup):
    Should work OK. Don't forget to leave a line space after the previous code (i.e. after "# END Wordpress")
