Change directory and variables

[oysseus Profile]

Dear all,

my old path has a directory and a filename with a lots of variables.
Now I want to redirect it to a simple filename.

Example:
directory/filename.php?id=1&another=2&more=3

Should be:
filename.html

The directory and all variables not longer necessary.

I tried, but it doesn´t work:
RewriteRule ^directory/filename.php(.*) filename.html [R=301]

Many thx for help and best regards from Germany

Hello,

Doesn't seem like there's something wrong. My guess would be that you need '/' in front of the pattern AND add a condition:

Code: Select all

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^.+$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^/directory/filename\.php /filename.html [NC,R=301,L]
