Problem with redirect 301
-
I am trying to use the .htaccess file to redirect pages from an ‘old’ non-Wordpress website to a new WordPress website. The WordPress files are in a Beta folder.
A typical example would be to redirect:
https://www.cookeryskills.com/html/congress_tarts.html
to
https://www.cookeryskills.com/recipes/cake-and-pastry-recipes/congress-tarts/I followed the WordPress tutorial to get the website to run from the root directory instead of the Beta directory – this required the index.php and .htaccess files being copied from the WordPress (Beta) directory to the root directory.
The coding I have in my .htaccess file in the root (not Beta) directory is as follows:
Redirect 301 /cookeryskills.com/html/congress_tarts.html https://www.cookeryskills.com/recipes/cake-and-pastry-recipes/congress-tarts/
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
DirectoryIndex index.php index.html index.htm
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /Beta/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /Beta/index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPressThis is not working.
Can anyone suggest how I can get this to work?
Thanks!
