Remove parameters with .htaccess

Hi,

How do I do a 301 redirect for a URL like

http://www.mydomain.com/index.php?rss_id=some%20text

Code (markup):

to become just

http://www.mydomain.com

Code (markup):

I want to remove some URL from the search engine's list (Bing, in this case).

Thanks!

 

If you want to *remove* it, why not use https://support.discoverbing.com/de...ductkey=bingcontentremoval&brand=&&ct=eformts

 

I emailed them.
It's more than one URL and more than one site, so I'm looking for an .htaccess solution like:

RewriteRule ^rss_id([^/\.]+)?$ / [R=301,L]

Code (markup):

This doesn't seem to work for me. Any ideas?

 

You may be able to do a RedirectMatch 301 or something.. not too good at regex or anyhting m yself

if you have access to the PHP source, you could do

if(isset($_GET['rss_id'])){header('HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently');header('Location: /');}

 

The ^ before rss_id stands for beginning of the path, so it won't match the URLs you are trying to redirect and hence won't work.

Try changing it to:

RewriteRule ^/index.php?rss_id([^/\.]+)?$ / [R=301,L]

Code (markup):

 

RewriteRule ^index.php(.*)$ /? [R=301,L]

Code (markup):

The ? after the / clinches it.

 

I tried in on another webhost (1&1) and it didn't work.

This seems to work, though:

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} rss_id=(.*)
RewriteRule ^index.php(.*) /? [R=301,L]

Code (markup):
