如何使用其中的index.php重写wordpress网址

Question

I want to make custom WordPress URLs like this : http://example.com/index.php?productID=123 and for categories http://example.com/index.php?categoryID=123 and the reason is we have a website written in some old custom CMS and we want to move it to WordPress and we don't want to lose our indexes in google, The problem here is whenever we include index.php in custom URL rewrite it doesn't work and it automatically removes the index.php

here are the codes i tried:

add_rewrite_rule('index.php?p=(.*)', 'index.php?productId=$matches[1]', 'top');
add_rewrite_rule('index.php?cat=(.*)', 'index.php?categoryId=$matches[1]', 'top');

I also tried this plugin , it works fine but the problem is it converts the ? into %3F in URLs which causes 404 error

You should use 301 redirects in the .htaccess file, as per Google' suggestion. https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/93633?hl=en

An example of a line you'd add to your .htaccess would be: redirect 301 /index.php?oldProduct=123 /index.php?newProduct=123

But you really have limitless options. You can see more examples at http://www.isitebuild.com/301-redirect.htm
