If you use CPanel it can be done very simply in there

Running OC 1.5.5.1 with vqmods.

I did it in CPanel and this is what it show

Domain Directory Redirect Url Type Match www. Wildcard Remove
ALL /Wooden-Boxes_c4.htm http://thekollection.net/Hand-Painted-Wooden-Boxes permanent

However when I check it .. its now going to the URL
http://thekollection.net/Hand-Painted-W ... xes_c4.htm

I'm trying to do this, too.

I want to change this: http://nelsongemstones.com/gemstone-beads/green-opal/green-opal-8mm-round-grade-a-gemstone-beads

to this: http://nelsongemstones.com/gemstone-beads/green-opal/green-opal-8mm-round-beads

I used the "redirect" link in my cpanel, and this is what it inserted in my htaccess file (it's NOT working):

#RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^nelsongemstones\.com$ [OR]
#RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.nelsongemstones\.com$
#RewriteRule ^gemstone\-beads\/green\-opal\/green\-opal\-8mm\-round\-grade\-a\-gemstone\-beads$ #"http\:\/\/nelsongemstones\.com\/gemstone\-beads\/green\-opal\/green\-opal\-8mm\-round\-beads" [R=301,L]

So I tried typing directly in the htaccess file this:

Redirect 301 gemstone-beads/green-opal/green-opal-8mm-round-grade-a-gemstone-beads http://nelsongemstones.com/gemstone-beads/green-opal/green-opal-8mm-round-beads

and I tried this:

Redirect 301 /green-opal-8mm-round-grade-a-gemstone-beads http://nelsongemstones.com/gemstone-beads/green-opal/green-opal-8mm-round-beads

When I click on a search link in Google, the page is not found and the URL looks like this:

http://nelsongemstones.com/gemstone-beads/green-opal/green-opal-8mm-round-beads?_route_=green-opal-8mm-round-grade-a-gemstone-beads

What am I doing wrong?

If you guys don't want to mess around with htaccess, you could take a look at my Redirect Manager extension. It has an OpenCart interface for adding redirects, and accomplishes them using PHP.

I'd really like to know how to do it properly through the htaccess file.

Anybody?
