如果url包含使用htaccess的特定字符串，则重定向

Question

I want to redirect to different domain, 83answers.com if url contains forum string.

Like if my url is test.guru99.com/forum/xyxyxzz then it should redirect to 83answers.com . String forum can be anywhere in the url.

I have tried following

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} forum
RewriteRule .* 83answers.com [R,L]

and also this

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} forum
RewriteRule .* 83answers.com

But both didn't work ,Please help me to sort this out.

Regards

Answer 1

For the base URL, you don't need RewriteCond , just RewriteRule :

RewriteRule forum http://83answers.com [R,L]

For the query string, you were almost there:

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} forum
RewriteRule .? http://83answers.com [R,L]

The combined rules:

RewriteRule forum http://83answers.com [R,L]

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} forum
RewriteRule .? http://83answers.com [R,L]

Note that you must include http:// . If you just use 83answers.com , the server tries to redirect to a URL on your server. For example, it would redirect http://test.guru99.com/forum/xyxyxzz to http://test.guru99.com/83answers.com , which is no good.

Answer 2

You can add an OR clause between two RewriteCond like this:

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} forum [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} forum
RewriteRule ^ http://83answers.com/? [L,R=301]

Answer 3

Real answer that i maded code is

RewriteRule ^(.*)string(.*)$ http://your.website.com [R=301,L]

in place of string yoou can put your word
