A (slightly complicated) 301 redirect question

[rushabh]

Hello,

We have vbulletin installed on www.team-bhp.com/forum

Now, I'd like to incorporate a wildcard redirect from www.team-bhp.com/forum/classifieds to http://classifieds.team-bhp.com

How do I go about this? I tried with CPanel redirect rules (didn't work) and neither could my host help me out. I had photopost installed on forum/classifieds (LOUSY software BTW), have recently uninstalled it & moved on to another classifieds software.

Thanks

I couldn't test this but try:

Put .htaccess in your /forum/classifieds directory:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^ www.team-bhp.com$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://classifieds.team-bhp.com/$1 [R=301]

Thanks for the help BirdOPrey5.

I created a forum/classifieds directory and placed your .htaccess file. Still doesn't work.

Any other suggestions?

It worked for me just now when I clicked on your link in the first post- did you figure it out I guess?
