Problem with redirects and htaccess file
Posted: Sun May 22, 2016 4:28 pm
Hi
I was wondering if there is anyone that can shed some light into my following issue.
I set up 2 rediects via cPanel to a youtube video that worked fine. The redirects were showing in the htaccess file as normal. I decided to chnage the location of the file the redirect goes to but when i went into cPanel there were no redirects. This wasn't an issue as the redirects were still in the htaccess file. I deleted these redirects and set new ones up for the new location via cPanel. The strange thing is the redirects are still going to the old locations.
The stranger thing is this. If I delete everything in the htaccess file and setup the redirect it works perfectly, but some functionality doesn't work on the site for example the information pages links. If I load up the old htaccess file and add the new redirect, it still redirects to the old youtube video.
Does anyone know what might be causing this? Is there somewhere on the site that has registered this old redirect and it is still in play somehow even though I cannot find a reference to it anywhere?
You help is very much appreciated.
