Redirect

Introduction

Before redirecting, you need to find out the type of server on which Your website is hosted.

File. .htaccess Making changes to the Apache server

In Nginx, a file serves a similar purpose. nginx.conf It's the same thing, but the syntax is a little different.

Simple Permanent Redirect 301

To move the page from one address to another permanently put in .htaccess the following changes:

RewriteEngine on Redirect 301 old_url http://new_page_address

Where old url is the address of old page relative root site

If your server is Apache, a file .htaccess You don't. You can create it yourself and place it, for example. The root directory.

Example

RewriteEngine on Redirect 301 /old_dir/url1.php /new_dir/url1.php Redirect 301 /old_url1.php /new_url.php Redirect 301 /old_url2.php /new_dir/new_url.php

You can redirect an entire directory.

RewriteEngine on Redirect 301 /old_dir /new_dir

Two redirects

If you make two redirects that affect a page, For example, you redirect an entire directory, and you also change something inside. You need to do it carefully.

Suppose it were:

/old_dir/a.php
/old_dir/b.php
/old_dir/c.php

Now we need to:

/new_dir/a.php
/new_dir/b.php
/new_dir/new_c.php

For forwarding a.php and b.php rule

Redirect 301 /old_dir /new_dir

And here's to redirect correctly. c. php into new_c.php Think about where the old one is going. c. php considering our redirect Redirect 301 /old_dir /new_dir

As you may have guessed, it will be redirected from

/old_dir/c.php

into

/new_dir/c.php

And now this non-existent /new_dir/c.php We need to redirect to

/new_dir/new_c.php

Therefore, the rule will look as follows:

Redirect 301 /old_dir /new_dir Redirect 301 /new_dir/c.php /new_dir/new_c.php

Debage

If you have any problems with redirecting, the first thing you do is I advise you to go to the hosting and honor the logs.

Hosting. Beget which I use, and I can recommend - logs with errors file access sitename.xx.error.log

When I want to check what’s wrong, I’ll log in to the hosting service. ssh I go to public html and do it.

tail -n 100 aredel.com.error.log

This is how I see the last 100 lines of today's log. And if there were

… script '/home/xxx/aredel.com/public_html/new_dir/c.php' not found or unable to start, referer heihei.ru

I would understand that there is no redirect from the old c.php new new_c.php and add a line

Redirect 301 /new_dir/c.php /new_dir/new_c.php

In .htaccess
