Redirect all the .php files of root folder (old URLs) to new folder, with .htaccess

Question

I need to redirect all the .php files of root directory (old URLs) to the same files which have been moved to a new directory (new URLs), with .htaccess.

eg:

something.com/handsome.php , something.com/index.php

to

something.com/fold/handsome.php , something.com/fold/index.php

etc. Also:

something.com/hector/handsome.php

to

something.com/fold/hector/handsome.php

Please help, Thanks.

Answer 1

I think the correct syntax for you would be:

Redirect 301 /handsome.php http://www.something.com/fold/handsome.php
Redirect 301 /index.php http://www.something.com/fold/index.php
Redirect 301 /hector/handsome.php http://www.something.com/fold/hector/handsome.php

in the .htaccess file. Further detalis here: http://www.htaccess-guide.com/redirects/ .

Answer 2

Redirect using htaccess

RedirectMatch 301 something.com/handsome.php(.*) something.com/index.php$1

RedirectMatch 301 something.com/fold/handsome.php(.*) something.com/fold/index.php$1

RedirectMatch 301 something.com/hector/handsome.php(.*) something.com/fold/hector/handsome.php$1
