Resshanney,

Brilliant. Does exactly what I wanted. Thank you very very much

OK Sorted.

Putting the new code under the existing code doesn’t appear to work, but putting the new code at the top does work.

Presumably it diverts index.html to index.php first, then activates the rest of the code.

The full code that works is:

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^.*/index.html
RewriteRule ^(.*)index.html$ https://mysite.com/$1 [R=301,L]

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

More info:

My existing .htaccess reads as follows:

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

I did a Google search, and it looks as though I may be able to add the following to the .htaccess:

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^.*/index.html
RewriteRule ^(.*)index.html$ https://www.yoursite.com/$1 [R=301,L]

However, I’m not fully sure how to do this and don’t want to screw things up.

Where exactly do I add the second bit of code to the first bit?

Can anyone tell me please?

RVoodoo,

Works a treat.

Thank You Very, Very much.

Thanks Webjunk,

I don’t mind getting more in depth with the code (Just bought, but not yet read, CSS The Missing Manual).

Just need pointing in the right direction please.
