Hello all, I've asked for help on my webhost (Hostgator) and unfortunatley they can't even help because 'its outside their support knowledge' that shocking! So i've searched arround the websites on Google, most of them are just wayyyyyyyy to verbose , so my head couldn't simply digest that kind of info. I would like to add that i can do this easily via PHP. But i want to 'delete' the subdomain because i've moved certain data to subdomain 2. So here goes, how do i do this: --> User from Google Search visits OldSubdomain.mysite.com/?l=http://tinypic.com/r/1z18dmp --> Apache .htacess must rewrite/redirect from here oldsubdomain.mysite.com/?l=querystring ----> newsubdomain.mysite.com/?link=SAME-QUERY-STRING Just to clarify a few things. l <--is the letter L (small caps) only used in OLD subdomain. link <-- is the word used in NEW subdomain. query string <---must be the same when redirecting. ImageSite <---my site is a photosharing forum, so my php script in the subdomain retrieves data from tinypic/hotimg based on URL string after the equals (=) http:// or no-http:// <--sometimes query string will be like this /?l=tinypic.com (there is not http but php-script will add http during proccessing, so don't worry) Examples again: Before --- OldSubdomain.mysite.com/?l=http://tinypic.com/r/1z18dmp OldSubdomain.mysite.com/?l=tinypic.com/r/1z18dua (Different query && WITHOUT "http://" prefix) OldSubdomain.mysite.com/?l=http://www.hotimg.com/image/cpqspWC (Dirrent remote image site..) After -- NEWSubdomain.mysite.com/?link=http://tinypic.com/r/1z18dmp NEWSubdomain.mysite.com/?link=tinypic.com/r/1z18dua (Different query && WITHOUT "http://" prefix) NEWSubdomain.mysite.com/?link=http://www.hotimg.com/image/cpqspWC (Dirrent remote image site..) That is all, so i hope someone can assisst me with this & thanks is given in advance
I thought i would bump this, incase it was overlooked, but anyway...has anyone had a luck in solving my problem ?
