Question

I’m trying to foil bots from registering on my site. The issue is a form that is on a url without a capture. I have a different form with a capture I want to redirect to

I want

http://site.com?task=register#content

to redirect to

http://site.com/home/register

Here is what I have so far

redirect 301 ^task\=register\#content$ http://site.com/home/register

NOTE : The solution needs to have regex involved because the query string is complex with its characters that need escaping which the slash should be doing.

Thank you.

I would try doing it like this:

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example\.com
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.other.com/$1 [R=permanent,L]
