Based on the info in the comments, here’s my preliminary answer, hopefully helping to debug the issue rather than a fix as I can’t see enough info for that — not the OP’s fault, rewrite debugging is just a pain. The rewrite rule is obviously passing something to WP but WP isn’t happy with it. … Read more
A good idea might be to get a back up your old htaccess file and see if the issue still occurs. If it does, why not add the code from your existing file to the end of the wordpress file?
This is somewhat of a guess, but it is probably a result of the web server configuration. What your server probably does is to see that the request want to load the blog url of the site. It checks out and sees that blog is a directory adds a slash and redirects to it. Now … Read more
If /seba-online-form-fill-up-2018.html is an actual WordPress URL then this is relatively trivial to do in .htaccess. For example, the following one-liner using mod_rewrite could be used. This should be placed before the existing WordPress directives in .htaccess: RewriteRule ^\d{4}/\d{1,2}/(.+\.html)$ /$1 [R=302,L] This redirects a URL of the form /NNNN/NN/<anything>.html to /<anything>.html. Where N is a … Read more
Well localized the problem (without understanding it so far) It was not the .htaccess file. It was not plugins or themes (which I deactivated all to see what happens) But my little php app had their own session handling and modified the header. Just simple textbook stuff (login etc..) which works flawless outside WP. I … Read more
There are some things you can try: Check the wp-options table in your staging site database and look for site URL in 2 places. Change it to the correct staging address if already not. Refresh the permalinks of the staging site. I am guessing this should fix your problem. If not, please share your website … Read more
TL:DR: The slug of the home page and a folder at the root had the same name There was a folder that I was using for home page assets, the address was “example.net/home/” and the original WP development was “example.net/wordpress/”. When I moved the wordpress files out to the root, the home page had a … Read more
Providing you’ve already updated the internal links and that example.jp points to the same place on the filesystem as example.com (via CNAME and appropriate server config changes) then you don’t necessarily need to rewrite to example.com, since example.jp accesses the same files. Trying to rewrite to a different domain will implicitly trigger an external redirect … Read more
Forcing www to non-www is simple at the primary domain level. It’s actually the same for the subdomain (depending on how you’ve written the directives in the first place). If the hostname (main domain or subdmomain) starts with www. then remove it. (Forcing non-www to www for subdomains and main domains is a little more … Read more
RedirectMatch 301 ^/watermeloncakes/ //www.clienturl.com/watermelon-cakes-1/ (I assuming www.clienturl.com is the hostname for this site.) Well, here’s the thing… this would never have worked on any version of Apache!? Because protocol-relative URLs are not supported by mod_alias RedirectMatch (or Redirect) or mod_rewrite for that matter. From the Apache docs: The new URL may be either an absolute … Read more
