Hello I am transitioning many static html pages on a small website to php. To maintain page rank and incoming links I thought of using htaccess rewrite so that all new page.php could still be accessed via the old links page.html I am not very experienced with htaccess and I did some research on this forum and other forums. I tested various syntax, including: RewriteRule ^(.*)\.html$ $1.php [R=301,L] RewriteRule ^(.*)\.html$ $1.php [L] RewriteRule ^([^.]+)\.html$ $1.php [L] The last one seemed to work fine, but pages that are not .php (native .html pages) now return a 404. Could anyone help with this? Any suggestion would be very much appreciated Thank you!!
