Hi I need some help with redirects please I want all urls on my site that are in this format: domain.com/economy-tag/URL/ to be redirected to domain.com/tag/URL/ How can I do that? Thank you in advance for help. BR
Hi Matt! Set up a .htaccess file in the root of your domain with the following contents: RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^/economy-tag/(.*)$ /tag/$1 [R=301,L] That should do it for you and by using the 301 permanent redirect (instead an usual temporary redirect), any Google Pagerank from the old URL will be forwarded to the new URL.
Thank you for you help, but it doesn't work http://www.sayeconomy.com/economy-tag/numerator/ It doesn't get redirected
Sorry, remove the "/" from "^/economy...". Also, the URLs on this domain look like there might be other rewrite rules active. So you might need to see where you have to add this to have it working and not getting redirected to the script instead, if the other rules apply first.
Thank you very much for your help, but it still doesn't work I am adding my full htaccess here. Where should I add it so it will work?
