		How to 301 redirect forum to subdomain Goto page 1, 2  Next          phpBB SEO » SEO Forum  » Apache mod Rewrite ::   Author Message visio Joined: 31 May 2007 Posts: 22 Posted: Wed Jun 06, 2007 6:10 pm    Post subject: How to 301 redirect forum to subdomain I got everything working. Now I want to redirect my forums from domain.com/forums to forums.domain.com I tried the following: RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?domain\.com$ RewriteRule ^forums/(.*) http://forums.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L] But it didn't work. How do I do this with both advanced mod rewrite installed and zero dup?

For the cookie setting, it looks like you already did the right thing, the dot allows all sub domains at once, so don't touch it. Then, about the .hatccess it's the same, you're going from a sub folder install to a root install. So get rid of the current forum .htaccess in the root level and put it, after you've removed all occurrences of "forum/" in it (we don't need to mention a path anymore, the forum is installed in the sub forum's root). Then, in the main domain's root .htaccess, add this : Code: RewriteRule ^forums/(.*) http://forums.example.com/$1 [QSA,R=301] To http 301 redirect all calls to the forum/ folder (thus from the main domain) to the sud domain. Add this rewriterule after the www prefix redirection for example, or as you very first rewriterule after mod_rewrite was started. And it will be it, as long as, of course, the sub domain itself does already works. ++ _________________ Useful links : SEO Forum || SEO Directory || SEO phpBB || SEO phpBB3 || Search ____________________ Liens Utiles : Forum référencement || Annuaire référencement || Référencement phpBB || Référencement phpBB3 || Recherche Back to top visio Joined: 31 May 2007 Posts: 22 Posted: Wed Jun 06, 2007 10:19 pm    Post subject: Re: How to 301 redirect forum to subdomain It didn't work. when I do what you say it looks right but when I click a board it gives 404.

As well, tell me if there is another .htaccess in the main domain's root. The sub domain obviously needs to be set up properly as well. Then, a link could help out to help you out ++ _________________ Useful links : SEO Forum || SEO Directory || SEO phpBB || SEO phpBB3 || Search ____________________ Liens Utiles : Forum référencement || Annuaire référencement || Référencement phpBB || Référencement phpBB3 || Recherche Back to top visio Joined: 31 May 2007 Posts: 22 Posted: Mon Jun 11, 2007 12:37 pm    Post subject: Re: How to 301 redirect forum to subdomain Well I took it off because it wasn't working and while it was on it screwed up the folder option too. I would be happy to give a link. Please tell me how I can do this for just the home page, I tried a normal ahref link but it didn't show up.

Thanks for your reply! I added that(added an 's' too as it is forums not forum ) - 1stsearchenginerankings.com/forums redirects properly now(I guess, the browser accepts it) - However a request for this url: http://www.1stsearchenginerankings.com/forums/general-discussion-f1.html does not redirect to http://forums.1stsearchenginerankings.com/general-discussion-f1.html (although if typed in it will work) - instead the first url redirects to this: http://forums.1stsearchenginerankings.com/?f=1 Now that is the way the urls were before the mod-rewrite. Keep in mind the url bar said it redirected to http://forums.1stsearchenginerankings.com/?f=1 but it still displayed the forum home page. If you can make sense of all that more power to you...
