htaccess Redirect - Help

by AgentK
8 replies
I have over 2000+ wordpress posts with the following URL structure

site.com/ID/POST-TITLE

I need to redirect each post to a custom script that uses the wordpress ID:

site.com/post.php?id=ID

If someone could shed some light on this I will love you forever!
#htaccess #redirect

    I'm not sure if this what you looking for but you can change it back to the default wp urls

      Thanks for the link but I am migrating from Wordpress over to a custom script and I need my wordpress URLs to be redirected over to the new URLS

      If someone could help me out I would gladly appreciate it.

    Here you go. Just change the $site variable to whatever you need. This should be included at the very top of the page before anything else.

    If you need any help, let me know...




    <?php
    $site = 'www.site.com'; // change to whatever site you want to redirect to.
    $go = 'http://'.$site.'/post.php?id=';
    $url = parse_url($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
    $path = explode('/', $url['path']);
    $go .= $path[1];

    header('Location: '.$go);
    ?>

    If you are looking for an .htaccess solution then you might need to add every single URL with 301 redirect to the new URL...

    That would be a hectic task though...

    Just search for .htaccess 301 redirect in Google...

    You will need to do 2 steps
    1) change your permalink to default - after this you should be able to see the WP id for your post in the url
    2) setup .htaccess redirect oldpath to newpath
    ** your post id is available in variable $1
