Hi,

I'm trying to do a simple 301 redirect via htaccess with my Opencart 2.3 site.

old url: http://domain.com/PokPlushToy/PlushToys/ChikoPlush
the url I want to redirect to: https://domain.com/PokPlushToy


Here's my rewrite rule:

Code: Select all

RewriteRule ^PokPlushToy/PlushToys/ChikoPlush$ index.php?route=category/PokPlushToy [R=301,NC,L]
But this ain't werkin. It results in this:

https://domain.com/PokPlushToy?_route_= ... ChikoPlush

thanks for any help here.

PS. my rule is before this rule:
RewriteRule ^([^?]*) index.php?_route_=$1 [L,QSA]

but the url is still getting fouled.

Dave

Please post full .htaccess content.

Order of commands / rules is important in .htaccess

Other than the above, I cannot see why it would not work unless you have some kind of SEO URL modification installed

thanks for your help, UKsitebuilder. unfortunately, i still get the wonky URL with the route=blahblah tacked on which 404s it.

I think you are right, there has to be another variable affecting things. it *should* work.
