How to redirect complete WordPress subfolder from .htaccess file
Before edit the .htaccess file, you need to copy a backup .htaccess to your local PC.
Existing .htaccess should look something like:
Code:
==================================================
# BEGIN WordPress
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
# END WordPress
==================================================
Add a redirect for complete folder:
Code:
==================================================
# BEGIN WordPress
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
# END WordPress
Redirect 301 /oldfolder http://www.yourdomain.com/newfolder
==================================================
