Could anybody help me with this as its driving me round the bend. I have several old site, which i will be taking done to be replaced but once single new site. I need to setup some redirect for the old urls we have in the wild, i.e brochures etc.The old urls are in the format of i.e.http://www.olddomain/oldsite1/index.php?id=99 http://www.olddomain/oldsite2/index.php?id=22 i need to do a 301 redirect of each of these urls to something like http://www.newdomain/newsite/page1 http://www.newdomain/newsite/page2 I know i can't do a simple redirect in .htaccess as the id number does not get picked up. ie Redirect http://www.olddomain/oldsite1/index.php?id=99 http://www.newdomain/newsite/page1 I think i need to use RewriteRule, but i am not too sure how. The id numbers on the old site have nothing to do with the new site, so these do not need to be factored into the rewriting. Maybe i am thinking to hard about this but it is driving me mad. Any help would be most apreciated. All the best Janus
Looks like to me you have 2 jobs there that should probably
not be looked at as the same solution.
1.) 301 redirect for search engines to a new permanent destination
2.) rewrite for new URL structure (since I'm guessing "page1" is not
the actual name of the file you are trying to reach).
