I want to make 301 permanent redirect form this link
http://www.example.com/media-center/gum-guru-blog.feed?type=rss
to http://www.example.com/. I wrote following lines inside my .httaccess file but its not working.
RewriteRule /media-center/gum-guru-blog.feed?type=rss / [L,R=301]
redirect 301 /media-center/gum-guru-blog.feed?type=rss http://www.example.com
You can't use redirect 301 if you have a Query String ?type=rss you must use a Rewrite Rule with a Rewrite Condition including this Query String:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^type=rss$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^\/media-center\/gum-guru-blog\.feed$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /? [R=301,L]
Use the [NC] Flag to be case-insensitive, if needed.
