Starting to look at getting my http://ninecrows.com
base URL pointed at my landing page wordpress instance at http://ninecrows.com/landingpage
(artwork to support the landing page will come later).
This looks useful
RewriteEngine On RewriteLog /tmp/log.txt RewriteLogLevel 9
I have read that this particular redirect is a bit challenging as you need to redirect the base reference but not the pages below it. I had found a sample that claimed to show how to do this (and it was a dozen or more lines of rewrite rules) but at that time I didn’t have the ubuntu server set up to mirror my sites so I was not ready to test it.
I see this to take down the whole site (not what I want but perhaps useful to know).
# the conditions are implicitly combined # with a logical AND RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !=/alert.php RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^[^.]*/$ RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /alert.php [R=301,L]
saw this suggested
RewriteRule ^(?:$|index\.php) /landing.html [R,L]
and this using a different module (mod_alias)
RedirectMatch 301 ^/$ /landing.html
RewriteRule ^$ /homepage/
