htaccess rewrite condition old site to new site with querystring
- by Brandon Braner
I am not even going to pretend to fully understand how htaccess rewrite conditions work. I've been working on this for a while searching and searching.
I have an old Wordpress site www.old-site.com and a new site www.site.com. Wordpress uses query strings page_id=# to redirect to pages.
On the old site page_id=2 went to a specific page but on the new site it goes the the home page.
I need old-site/?page_id=2 to go to site.com/our-company
Here is what I am trying
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?old-site.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^page_id=2$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.site.com/our-company/ [R=301,L]
If I take out the rewrite condition for query string it redirects all traffic from old-site.com to the company page on the new site. Where am I going wrong?
I have about 15 redirects I need to do this way.
