使用htaccess更改网址

Question

I want to change a url like:

dynamicdomain.com/mypage

to

dynamicdomain.com/mydashboard

I want to display the content of mypage but the url that the users will see on the browser will contain mydashboard . How do I do this using .htaccess .

I tried using this:

RewriteEngine On Redirect 301 /mydashboard /mypage

but this redirects the url:

dynamicdomain.com/mydashboard

to

dynamicdomain.com/mypage

Edit: Here is another example on what I want to achieve: I have a folder mypage which can be accessed as: http://dynamicdomain.com/mypage/

I want the users to see http://dynamicdomain.com/mydashboard/ ( mydashboard folder doesn't exists) when they access http://dynamicdomain.com/mypage/

can someone point me in the right direction. Thanks.

Answer 1

Try these directives:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^mypage$ /dashbord [NC,L]

Redirect directive does an external redirect (redirects a URL to another URL) . To redirect "dashboard" internally to "/mypage" , you need to use the RewriteRule directive of the Rewrite module.

Answer 2

Put this in your htaccess file : just after IfModule closes

Redirect 301 /mypage http://www.dynamicdomain.com/mydashboard

This will work for you.
