    Hello,

    Well I have a web with a very bad structure (a vBulletin forum) and I want it redirected to a newer folder in the same server but with a upper level folder.

    Current structure is:
     PHP Code:
    http://www.unix.com/vbulletin/upload/index.php
    ​



    And I want it to be:
     PHP Code:
    http://www.unix.com/forums/index.php
    ​



    But the 301 redirections via htaccess aren't working properly and of course I don't want to lose rank...

    Any help?

    Thanks.

    Webserver: Apache
