Code: Select all

Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
rewritecond %{http_host} ^domain.com [nc]
rewriterule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [r=301,nc]

Hi!

Does your server support mod_rewrite? The rule should work actually, I think...

You can create pages with the "Static Page" plugin.

yes mod_rewrite is enabled, it's really weird why 301 redirect doesn't work with s9y!
any idea about the best working redirecting way that should work?

thanks

Hi!

You did put your custom code as the very first in the .htaccess file, right?

Try to add use [L] as an option for the redirect, so that once your custom rule hits the redirect will not check the other s9y rules.

Hi!

Code: Select all

RewriteEngine on
rewritecond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain.com [NC]
rewriterule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [R=301,NC,L]

should work, but I cannot currently test it on my server. You used some lowercase strings, maybe that's the trouble.

But that's what I wrote from the beginning.

Try:

Code: Select all

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING}  article_id=31
RewriteRule ^.* http://www.bluecirclet.com/archives/1-Body-Art.html [R,L]

at the top, before #BEGIN s9y, after the current RewriteRule.
