        Hi,

        For questions about redirect Google & Stackoverflow are your best friends:

        http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18998608/redirect-folder-to-another-with-htaccess

        Put this code in your htacess (if you already have rewrite rules you just have to add the rewrite rules (bold) before or after the existing ones and not the rest of the code - difficult to say if it needs to be before or after - it depends on the rules that you already have)

        Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews

        Turn mod_rewrite on

        RewriteEngine On
        RewriteBase /

        RewriteRule ^label/(.*)$ /tags/$1 [L,NC,R=301]

        rgds,

        Dirk
