Topic: Building Rewrite Rules in 1 ibay (template help)

[jfarschman]

Hello,

I need some template help.  I'm trying to migrate a website to a virtual host ibay on my SME server.  The problem is... this web site needs to do redirection:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([^-]+)\.htm$ redirect.php?page=$1.htm
RewriteRule ^([^-]+)\.html$ redirect.php?page=$1.html

These rules will take an URL like:

http://www.specialibay.com/ContactUs.html

and change it to:

http://www.specialibay.com/redirect.php?page=ContactUs.html

Then redirect.php pulls the web page from the mysql DB.

Anybody know how to template this?

Think template not needed

try this

# db accounts setprop ibayname AllowOverride All
# signal-event ibay-modify ibayname

and after just create a .htaccess with your rewrite rules

tell me if it works )
