Hello Jel Bee,

I wants to do same as you…

http://www.domain.com/category.html?p=1&limit=40 to http://www.domain.com/category.html

category.html will differ.. i can’t give static ‘category.html’ in RewriteRule.

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (.*)(^p=[1]&?|^&p=[1]&|&p=[1])$(&?.*)$
RewriteRule (.*) %{REQUEST_URI}?%1%3 [L,R=301]

i used above code to redirect when “p=1″.

To use more query_string parameter it needs to add on the end of {QUERY_STRING} definition the [OR] or the [AND].

worked.

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/$
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^q=foo$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /bar/results/? [R=302,L]

thanks.

This is great help and I think I understand it! In your mass-redirect section you suggest:

RedirectMatch ^/oldfolder/(.*)$ http://mydomain.site/newfolder/$1

Does this assume a matching new page for each of the old pages? I am trying to redirect all pages to a single page with fixed content (regardless of the extension) so would the command look like this?

RedirectMatch ^/oldfolder/(.*)$ http://mydomain.site/newpage.html (new page is a fixed content and not dynamic).

Regards

AZL

Hello
Thank you very much for your post!
I need to close access to specific url on my site like this : “index.php?act=add”
So is it possibe to create some rule in .htaccess file to close access to this url or make server respond error 404 instead of 200 ok ?
I have tried to this one but it is not working:

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} act=add
RewriteRule ^/index.php – [F]

If someone knows how to do this comment please.

hi there,
i like to be able to redirect traffic coming in with specific search keywords (like those tracked with google analytics) to a specific page on another site. Can this be done from the .htaccess file on Apache webserver?

Thanks for the info. Still can’t quite get the right rewrite format though. I changed ecommerce engines and need to remove a query string in the middle and the end of the url

My old url: http://www.123safe.com/cgi-bin/SoftCart.exe/scstore/p-1031209AL.html

new url: http://www.123safe.com/scstore/p-1031209AL.html

some old links will have the shopping cart id attached after the .html. For example:

http://www.123safe.com/cgi-bin/SoftCart.exe/scstore/p-1031209AL.html?L+scstore+mzbz8040ff0bcd0b+1159202257

Thanks for all your help.
