Mod_rewrite and multiple sub pages

[Golf Gti]

I am having issues trying to 301 redirect a cmsms page that was deleted to another cmsms page that exsits.

Here is what I have in my .htaccess
Redirect 301 /sub1/sub2/page.html http://www.site.com/sub1/sub2/page2.html
what happens is it turns the url into:
http://www.site.com/sub1/sub2/page.html ... page2.html

The weird thing is I have the same rules setup for other pages and they redirect fine.
Do I have to have another rewite rule for having multiple sub pages?


RewriteEngine on
#Sub-dir e.g: /cmsms/
RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php?page=$1 [QSA]

hmm try

Redirect 301 http://www.site.com/sub1/sub2/page.html http://www.site.com/sub1/sub2/page2.html

try the CMSMS seo rewrite like this:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php?page=$1 [L]

note the [L]  instead of [QSA]

your original 301 redirect was ok...

try the CMSMS seo rewrite like this:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php?page=$1 [L]

note the [L]  instead of [QSA]

your original 301 redirect was ok...

Well... if $1 is the callback to the page_alias then you'd need to Append query string... yes?

[L] Last - stop processing rules
[QSA]Append query string

I'm not super on the mod_rewrite but I thought you had to have the query


here is my R301 for this site... http://www.hellscanyonsportfishing.com/  which is working just fine...

Code: Select all

RewriteRule ^steelheadpics\.html$ /albums/steelhead.html [R=301,L] 
RewriteRule ^fishing_smallmouthbass\.html$ /albums/bass.html [R=301,L] 

# CMSMS Rewriting
# Set assume mod_rewrite to true in config.php and clear CMSMS cache
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php?page=$1 [QSA]

so try

Code: Select all

RewriteRule ^/sub1/sub2/page\.html$ /sub1/sub2/page2.html [R=301,L] 

# CMSMS Rewriting
# Set assume mod_rewrite to true in config.php and clear CMSMS cache
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php?page=$1 [QSA]

Hope this helps
Cheers

OK, soo this mod_rewrite is the biggest headache!

If i use the [L] like below, the page will load the content but still have the /sub1/sub2/page.html?page=sub1/sub2/page2.html url. QSA will not load the content

try the CMSMS seo rewrite like this:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php?page=$1 [L]

note the [L]  instead of [QSA]

your original 301 redirect was ok...

Also I have static pages under a different folder that will be cached as
/realfolder/realfolder/cmssub/cmspage.html
Instead of being redirected to root / , /cmssub/cmspage.html
