mod_rewrite redirect help

I would suggest making the root /blog and the articles /blog/2011…. because otherwise that gets messy. OR the root should be / (no blog).

Put this ABOVE the WordPress section.

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^blog\.domain\.co\.uk
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.domain.co.uk/$1 [R=301,L]

That should send everything

I would love to make everything https://www.domain.co.uk/blog/2011… but could not find out how to do that. Changing the permalink to /blog/%category% was not an option.

How did you make the main blog https://www.domain.co.uk/blog/ then?

Created a page called “blog” and linked the post page to that.

So you did this: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Creating_a_Static_Front_Page

Okay. What happens when you change the permalinks to /blog/%year%/%month%/%postname%

That works fine for the actual posts but then mucks with my custom post types.

Well, this will redirect blog.domain.co.uk/whatever to domain.co.uk/whatever … so that should cover most of it.

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^blog\.domain\.co\.uk
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.domain.co.uk/$1 [R=301,L]

blog.domain.co.uk itself will go to domain.co.uk sadly.
