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

The solution is to use variables. Each wildcard corresponds to a variable when can be referenced in the forwarding address. The variables are represented by a $ followed by a number. To refer to the first wildcard you'd use $1, to refer to the second wildcard you'd use $2, and so on.


To fix the forwarding from the root to www in the above example, you could use the same pattern:

example.com/*

You'd then set up the following URL for traffic to forward to:

http://www.example.com/$1
In this case, if someone went to:

example.com/some-particular-page.html

They'd be redirected to:

http://www.example.com/some-particular-page.html

Add to .htaccess on the old site:

Code:

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

Replace "olddomain" and "newdomain" as appropriate.

If you aren't comfortable, familiar with or able to edit .htaccess then use https://support.cloudflare.com/hc/en-us/articles/200172286-Configuring-URL-forwarding-or-redirects-with-Cloudflare-Page-Rules
