.htaccess 301 redirect - help me, please

I want to redirect these URLs

forum.tld/archive/index.php/t-1052.html
forum.tld/archive/index.php/t-1052.html?q=randomlygeneratedstring

to the following URL via .htaccess,

forum.tld/threads/1052

Does anyone know how to do that? Thanks.

 

Try:
Redirect 301 /archive/index.php/t-1052.html forum.tld/threads/1052

add http to forum.tld/threads/1052

 

OK, but that number is not static, it can be anything, not just 1052. It is an ID of a thread.

 

Try this code. Your server must have "mod_rewrite" module enabled for this to work:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^archive/index\.php/t-([0-9]+)\.html(.+)?$ /threads/$1 [R=301,L]

Code (markup):

Have a look here for more reference: http://www.yourhtmlsource.com/sitemanagement/urlrewriting.html

 

Thanks. But when I open forum.tld/archive/index.php/t-1052.html?q=randomlygeneratedstring in my browser, it redirects me to forum.tld/threads/1052?s=randomlygeneratedstring. Is there a way to remove that parameter "s"?
