Question

I am trying to permanently redirect a url but it doesn’t seem to work, this is what I have in the .htaccess file

RewriteEngine on
rewriteRule ^modules\.php?name=My_Page$ http://mysite.net/mypage [R=permanent,L]

As you can see I want to redirect modules.php?name=My_Page to http://mysite.net/mypage
I appreciate any help. Thanks

The path used in RewriteRule doesn’t contain the querystring. Use

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^name=My_Page$
rewriteRule ^modules\.php$ /mypage? [R=permanent,L]
