.htaccess help!
I'm moving content from an old domain to a new one, but with a few catches. I want the home page from the old domain to go to a specific page on the new domain. And I want everything from a specific folder on the old domain to go to a new subdomain. I want pages and querystrings to convey too so the person who visits site A almost doesn't notice that they have been forwarded to site B.
Everying else can forward as it (and I have that part figured out!)
I have tried a ton of different ideas and none have worked so I'm running out of options. Here is what I have, or mostly want:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
# If / or /index.php redirect to newsite.org/index-alt.php (then stop! [END])
# the first challenge
# If /directory[/whatever] redirect to subdomain.newsite.org[/whatever] (then stop! [END])
# the second challenge
# Or redirect everything else to newsite.org[/everythingelse?etc]
# this works but is it the best solution?
RewriteRule .* https://newsite.org%{REQUEST\_URI} [R=302,L]
</IfModule>
