          I have created a new website and need to redirect all of the previous pages to the new one. The old website was built in coldfusion and the new site is built in wordpress.

          One of the pages I'm trying to redirect is www.norriseal.com/products.cfm to http://norrisealwellmark.com/products/.

          This is what I have in my .htaccess file

          <ifmodule mod_rewrite.c="">Options +FollowSymlinks
          RewriteEngine On
          RewriteBase /
          Redirect 301 /products.cfm http://norrisealwellmark.com/products/</ifmodule>

          The result of this redirect is http://norrisealwellmark.com/products.cfm

          How do I prevent the .cfm from appending to the destination URL?

            Hey Britney,

            No, the old (ColdFusion) site and the new (PHP) site are on the same linux (CentOS) server.

            The 301 redirect rule I described above in my original post is applying '.cfm' to the end of the destination URL - thats the main issue we're trying to tackle here.

            Thanks for responding!

              Hi Chris,

              Are you still using ColdFusion?

              It sounds like you're on a Windows server, yeah? If so, adding this to your web.config file should do the trick:

              <match url="(.*)"><conditions><add matchtype="IsFile" negate="true"><add matchtype="IsDirectory" negate="true"></add></add></conditions>
                  <action type="Rewrite" url="{R:1}.cfm"></action></match>

              Otherwise, adding the following to your web.config for WordPress should work:

               <rulename="company cfm"=""><matchurl="^company (.*)$"=""><conditionslogicalgrouping="matchall"><addinput="{request_filename}"matchtype="isfile"negate="true"><addinput="{request_filename}"matchtype="isdirectory"negate="true"><actiontype="rewrite"url="{r:1}.cfm"></actiontype="rewrite"url="{r:1}.cfm"></addinput="{request_filename}"matchtype="isdirectory"negate="true"></addinput="{request_filename}"matchtype="isfile"negate="true"></conditionslogicalgrouping="matchall"></matchurl="^company></rulename="company>

                Unsolved Temporary redirect from 302 to 301 for PNG File?

                302 temporary riderect 301 http status image issue

                #302HTTP #temporaryredirect
                Hi everyone, Recently I have faced a crawl issue with my media images on website. For example this page url https://intreface.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Horion-screen-side-2.png has 302 HTTP Status and the recommendation is to change it 301. I have read the article on temporary redirections here:
                https://a-moz.groupbuyseo.org/learn/seo/redirection?_ga=2.45324708.1293586627.1702571936-916254120.1702571936
                but its not written here how to redirect in my HTML 1 image url not the landing page.
                Screenshot 2023-12-15 at 11.02.40.png
                I have messaged to MOZ Support but they recommended to go for the MOZ Community!
                Screenshot 2023-12-15 at 11.06.02.png Could you assist me wit this issue please? I can reach HTTML of the necessary page and change what I need for permanent redirection but firstly I need to understand how to do that correctly.

                301 redirect adding trailing slash to url

                I am looking into a .htacess file for a site I look after and have noticed that the urls are all 301 redirecting from a none slash directory to a trailing slashed directory/folders. e.g. www.domain.com/folder gets 301 redirected to www.domain.com/folder/ Will this do much harm and reduce the effect on the page and any links pointing to the site be lessened? Secondly I am not sure what part of my htaccess is causing the redirect. RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.domain.co.uk [NC] RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^$
                RewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.domain.co.uk/$1 [L,R,NE] RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^./index.php
                RewriteRule ^(.)index.php$ /$1 [R=301,L] or could a wordpress ifmodule be causing the problem? Any info would be apreciated.

                How to redirect 302 status to 301 status code using wordpress

                I just ran the link opportunity option within site explorer and it shows that 31 pages are currently in a 302 status.  Should I try to convert the 302's to 301's?  And what is the easiest way to do this? I see several wordpress plugins that claim to do 301 redirects but I don't know which to choose. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

                Can you do a 301 redirect without a hosting account?

                Trying to retire domain1 and 301 it to domain2 - just don't want to get stuck having to pay the old hosting provider simply to serve a .htaccess file with the redirect rule.

                200 Redirects for SEO instead of 301

                We are working with a company on re-platforming our website.  On a call yesterday they outlined a strategy to use 200 redirects for our top keywords instead of 301s.  I am not familiar with this type of redirect and was wondering if anyone could provide some more insight.

                Why is a 301 redirected url still getting indexed?

                We recently fixed a redirect issue in a website, and although it appears that the redirection is working fine, the url in question keeps on getting crawled, indexed and cached by google. The redirect was done a month ago, and google shows cached version of it, even for a couple of days ago. Manual checking shows that its being redirected, and also a couple of online tools i checked report a 301 redirect. Do you have any idea why this could be happening? The website I'm talking about is www.hotelmajestic.gr and its being redirected to www.hotel-majestic.gr
