htaccess - 301 redirection and WP SEO URLs don't work
Folder of old HTML website: public_html/old
Folder of new Wordpress based website (Site Address is set to www.domain.com): public_html/new
As of now, new Wordpress website works fine if one opens www.domain.com or www.domain.com/new. However, the old website is still accessible via www.domain.com/old, so I would like to redirect it to the new website. To put it in other words, I would like to permanently redirect absolutely everything from www.domain.com/old as well as subfolders to the new website.
Could anyone please write me down which rules should I use in .htaccess and in which folder should I put it?
The second problem is about new Wordpress website. Everything works fine except when I try to use SEO URL's in http://domain.com/sample-post/ format. In that case www.domain.com will open fine, however I get the followiong 404 error for all subpages (e.g. www.domain.com/news etc.)
"Not Found
The requested URL /index.php was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request."
Here's .htaccess from WP folder (public_html/new):
RewriteEngine On DirectoryIndex index.php RewriteBase /new RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L] # add a trailing slash to /wp-admin RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?wp-admin$ $1wp-admin/ [R=301,L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d RewriteRule ^ - [L] RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $2 [L] RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*\.php)$ $2 [L] RewriteRule . index.php [L] # BEGIN WordPress <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /new/ RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /new/index.php [L] </IfModule> # END WordPress
