i have a question about writing a rule in the htaccess file which is located in the root directory of drupal. We use the Drupal 7 version.
We want to write a rule for the url that when i go to the page "/newpage/1/name" it should target the "/oldpage?id=1&user=name". So the targetpage is a page which is created in drupal itself (a added content from a contenttype).
But i always get the same "Page not found"-Error. I can access the "/oldpage" by the way
I tried some rules about simply rewriteUrl without any parameters (to make a start). But it also didn't work for me. Here my try:
RewriteRule ^oldpage /newpage [L,R=301]
This line is below this part:
# Pass all requests not referring directly to files in the filesystem to
# index.php. Clean URLs are handled in drupal_environment_initialize().
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !=/favicon.ico
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
So are there any special rules for writing rules in the htaccess file in drupal? (maybe especially in version 7) or what is wrong on my code?
Reading this site Guide ,I would try the following line
RewriteRule oldpage?id=(.*)&user=(.*)/$ /newpage/$1/$2
