Hello all, Hoping someone can help with this issue with my .htaccess redirect. so a bit of history, I had a Vbulletin (3.8) forum script that had the .htaaccess file you see below, I was using VBSEO (an SEO script that change the URL to be search engine friendly.) I then moved my forum over to Xenforo software, so the threads needed to be redirected as well as my URL - here is the additional code I was given which I just dropped in the top of the .htaccess file. Options -Indexes RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} www.mysite.com$ RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://mysite.com/$1 [R=301,L] RewriteRule ^[^/]+/.+-([0-9]+)/$ /community/index.php?threads/$1/ [R=301,L] RewriteRule ^forum\.php$ /community/ [R=301,L] RewriteRule ^(images|dir2|dir3|dir4)/.*$ - [S=1] RewriteRule ^.*$ /community/ [R=301,L] Code (markup): The problem is this, when looking for www.mysite.com/robots.txt it redirects back to www.mysite.com Please help with this issue, its frustrating to say the least! Thanks in advance!
