I'm trying to setup a redirect of a page i deleted I'd prefer doing through my ftp by accessing the .htaccess file which i managed to edit ok but the redirect didn't work. These are the new and old pages...
deleted page:
http://newedgemarketing.com.au/online-marketing-assessment/New Page:
http://newedgemarketing.com.au/assessment/Tried:
redirect 301 online-marketing-assessment http://newedgemarketing.com.au/assessment
and also:
redirect 301 online-marketing-assessment.html http://newedgemarketing.com.au/assessment.htmlany any ideas, didn't really want to use a plugin but will do for now.
http://newedgemarketing.com.au/online-marketing-assessment/Once again, the forums are eating my posts for including too many links.
So you'll have to read up on the 3 different redirect plugins I use by finding them at the repository by searching: Quick Page/Post Redirect, Redirection, and Redirect List
As for your .htaccess recipe, try this:
Redirect 301 /online-marketing-assessment/ http://newedgemarketing.com.au/assessment/
or if you are getting incoming requests for the old URL without the trailing slash, try this:
Redirect 301 /online-marketing-assessment/?$ http://newedgemarketing.com.au/assessment/

Or you could use the Genesis SEO settings.
There are 3 plugins that I use, depending on site need, Redirection, Quick Page/Post Redirect, and Redirect List.
But for your .htaccess solution, try this:
Redirect 301 /online-marketing-assessment/ http://newedgemarketing.com.au/assessment/
If you have issues where incoming links are using the old link without the trailing slash, try this:
Redirect 301 /online-marketing-assessment/?$ http://newedgemarketing.com.au/assessment/
