301 / Canonical Problem - Quick Help

Laubster · Oct 30, 2014

Hey everyone. My GF wants to transfer her WP site from www.domains.com (plural) to another domain she owns: www.domain.com (singular). I know how to clone sites, but don't quite understand how to do this so that all the old URL's points to the new URL's. Can I edit the htaccess file on the old site so that all URL's are 301'd to the new site properly? And if so, can you copy/paste the code here or point me in the right direction please?

Try this in your htaccess file. Should redirect all old pages to new pages:

Code:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.newdomain\.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.newdomain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
