Redirection help please

[leony]

Hi,

I converted contact.php into contact.html using the following rule: (and the rest of the pages as well)

Code: Select all

RewriteRule ^(.*).\html$ /$1.php [L]


However, if someone requests contact.php again, I want them redirect to contact.html. If I use the following, it creates loop naturally. Please help.

Code: Select all

RewriteRule ^(.*).\html$ /$1.php [L]
RewriteRule ^(.*).\php$ /$1.html [R=301,L]

Code: Select all

RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$

stops loops. When it matches, it means it is not a sub request.

Code: Select all

Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteRule ^(.+\.)php$ /$1html [R=301,L]

RewriteRule ^(.+\.)html$ /$1php [QSA,L]

Hi,

Thank you very much for your reply. because I am new to this, I need help.

How about this rule?

Code: Select all

RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteRule ^product\.php/parent_id\=12$ /new-product.html [R=301,L]

RewriteRule ^new-product.\html$ /product.php/parent_id=12 [QSA,L]


It doesnt work properly, am I missing something here?

Try

Code: Select all

Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteRule ^product\.php/parent_id=12$ /new-product.html [R=301,L]

RewriteRule ^new-product\.html$ /product.php/parent_id=12 [QSA,L]
