How do I 301 redirect a number of pages to one page

[Heydarian]

I want to redirect all pages in /folder_A /folder_B to /folder_A/index.php.

Can I just write one or two lines of code to .htaccess to do that?

Hi Nima.

Is this perhaps possible to do with a RedirectMatch? Something like:
RedirectMatch 301 /folder_A/folder_B/(.*) /folder_A/index.php

Nima what platform are you using?

Is it PHP or ASP? And any specific CMS?

With wordpress all you have to do is to install a redirection plugin and you are good to go... but if you have a normal php based website you have to write the following code in your .htaccess file.

_Redirect 301 /oldpage.html http://www.yoursite.com/newpage.html_

_ Redirect 301 /oldpage2.html http://www.yoursite.com/newpage.html_[](http://www.yoursite.com/folder/)

If you are on a ASP platform you have to look in to your IIS and then work accordingly.

Its actually phpLD and I'm trying to do it with .htaccess.

For some reason the code below didn't work for me

RedirectMatch 301 /folder_A/folder_B/(.*) /folder_A/index.php

Strange.

How about something like this:
RewriteRule ^folder_B/(.*)$ /folder_A/index.php [R=301,L]

I'm not an expert in RegEx or Rewrite rules, so there could be som errors in there

Good luck!
