Greetings!

I need to redirect a 100+ web pages to a new directory and will be using a 301 redirect. Instead of having to write a redirect for every single page…is there a wildcard method I can use in the .htaccess file instead? I have a feeling I am going to have to go to the server level to handle this.

All of the pages that need to be moved start with “c-“:

/online-store/scstore/c-"product-name".html

They all need to be moved to:
/beer-store/

I couldn’t find anything in relation to my question on the web successfully, just on moving entire directories. Currently there are other things in that scstore directory that do not need to be moved so I do not have that option.

If anyone has any input it would greatly be appreciated.

Thanks,
Nikki

In your .htaccess

RewriteEngine On
Rewrite online-store/scstore/(c-.*) /beer-store/$1 [L,R=301]

Thanks mtishetsky,

I tried that and when I went to one of the c- pages I got a 500 Internal Server Error (The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.). Is there something in particular that needs to be enabled server side to allow this to work?

Thanks,
Nikki

First of all when you see the 500 error you should look into your server error log
