Hi, I've just taken over an established website and am redeveloping a completely new store for it. The URLs for the old store do not match my new store in any way so the old urls listed in the search engines now point to an error page. The old website was in the store directory, is there a way to redirect for example: http://www.domain.com/store/ AND all of the other urls with something after the /store/ , for example: http://www.domain.com/store/page2.htm http://www.domain.com/store/page5.htm http://www.domain.com/store/page34.htm to the root: http://www.domain.com Thanks in advance.
Use a 301 redirect. You will have to make the necessary amendments in the htaccess file of your website.
thanks, will just one line do it? Will I need to use some wort of 'wildcard' (*) to signify anything else that goes after the /store/ ?
I'm no expert but try adding this line to the end of your htaccess file redirect 301 /store http://domain.com/
