Need a few lines written in my .htaccess file to redirect from all pages with index.php in URL to root. Currently have several lines, each doing something and I don't really know anything about .htaccess. Kind of in a hurry, can pay with paypal, looking for a solution today. Thanks.
add this code in your .htacess file (if you dont have one go to notepad > paste this code > click save > In filename field = .htacsess > save as type field=all files > done > upload it to your root. code...(dont include dots/line) ------------------------ Options +FollowSymLinks DirectoryIndex index.php RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /index\.php\ HTTP/ RewriteRule ^index\.php$ http://www.YOUR WEBSITE.com/ [R=301,L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] ------------------------------
Thanks for the response. The code threw my site into a redirect loop, it's probably clashing with existing code in my .htaccess file. Here's what I have so far: <Files ~ "^.(htaccess|htpasswd)$"> deny from all </Files> RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.mysite\.com)80)? [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*) http://mysite.com/$1 [R=301,L] order deny,allow Options +FollowSymLinks RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^.*/index.html RewriteRule ^(.*)index.html$ http://mysite.com/$1 [R=301,L] Redirect permanent /cj/consulta/index.php http://mysite.com order deny,allow Redirect permanent /indexbc70.html http://mysite.com/index70.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=45&Itemid=54 order deny,allow Redirect permanent /index.php http://mysite.com AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .html It may be be redundant, I've patched it together w/o really knowing what I'm doing. Anyway, the purpose is to redirect: -from www to root -from index.html and index.php to root -a few page to page redirections -and lastly, what I'm having trouble with is the ability to redirect various pages that have filenames like /index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=68&Itemid=61 to the root of my site.
