Question about Magento 301 redirects that aren't working
I am rebuilding a website that was on an archaic ecommerce platform and rebuilding it with Magento. I have 4000+ page and product links from the old site and have new links for those to be redirected to. This is a csv file.
I have followed the information in this blog post;
Bulk 301 redirects in Magento with CSV file import phpmyadmin
I have created the csv as indicated and imported test entries to the database via phpmyadmin.
Here is a sample:
samplecsv301s_zps1ad2a6f0.jpg
Half of my test entries have a back slash ('/') before the target link and half don't because I wasn't sure which it was supposed to have in order to work. The blog post didn't indicate. The old link did have it.
But the redirects aren't working and I am not sure what else I need to do. Do I need a specific rule in the htaccess file? If so, what would it be?
My htaccess file has Rewrite Engine On.
I hope someone can help me out with this!
Thanks.
