Before I start banging my head on the wall, I'd like to kindly ask for some support. I'm quite new to this ... For several days now I've tried to make my redirects / RewriteRules work, but I'm only jumping back and forth between 500 internal server error and 404s page not found. :-( I've worked my way through many threads and guides, learnt a lot about mod_rewrite and improved my knowledge about regular expressions (amazing how much information is available online). I do sense the solution is right in front of me, but still in the dark and laughing at me. So far it hasn't jumped on me. Please give it a kick or whatsoever! The name of the WordPress "slug" for the page has changed from mysite.co.uk/a-b to /a-b-e to /a-b-d-e to /a-b-c-d-e. There are several subpages attached to it, so I thought RewriteRule might work best. Content of .htaccess: RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / # This actually works RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.mysite\.co\.uk$ [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://mysite.co.uk/$1 [R=301,L] # And now it gets messy RewriteRule ^a-b(/.*)?$ http://mysite.co.uk/a-b-c-d-e$1 [R=301, L] RewriteRule ^a-b-e(/.*)?$ http://mysite.co.uk/a-b-c-d-e$1 [R=301, L] RewriteRule ^a-b-d-e(/.*)?$ http://mysite.co.uk/a-b-c-d-e$1 [R=301, L] -> This throws the 500 at my screen Even when I try to do it all with Redirects, it doesn't work. # Again, this works Redirect 301 /a-b http://mysite.co.uk/a-b-c-d-e # But when adding the following line, I get a 404 for it, but not for the version of /a-b - Why? Redirect 301 /a-b-e http://mysite.co.uk/a-b-c-d-e Could someone please point me in the right direction? Thanks!
