htaccess rewrite directory

Question

I moved my website from the /v1/etc... directory to the /v2/etc... directory and would like to make a permanent redirect in htaccess. Can someone help me?

Answer 1

Put this:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule /v1/(.\*) /v2/(.\*) [R=301,L]

in your .htaccess file.

Answer 2

RedirectMatch permanent /v1/(.*) /v2/$1

Answer 3

You can use either mod_rewrite:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^v1(/.*)?$ /v2$1 [L,R=301]

Or mod_alias:

Redirect permanent /v1 /v2
