Url rewrite & 301 redirects
-
Hi all
I am having some issues rearding url rewrites and 301 redirects with 1 and 1 hosting and am unsure of the best approach. The website is a custom made shopping cart system with categories and products.
The current urls for categories are : index.php?l=product_list&c=1 The new url format required is : /banner-stands
The current urls for products are : index.php?l=product_detail&c=1&p=1 The new url format required is : /banner-stands/banner-stand
Thanks

Here is a lot of resources on 301 redirects. I do not need to go overboard however I believe the first few URL should get you there.
If you using a CMS like WordPress and you tell me it would be a lot easier troubleshoot

You would point like this using your .htaccess:
redirect 301 /index.php?l=product_list&c=1 http://www.yourdomain.com/banner-stands
redirect 301 /index.php?l=product_detail&c=1&p=1 http://www.yourdomain.com/banner-stands/banner-stand
the /index.php?l=product_list&c=1 is the old one that your want to 301 redirect.
