Question
so i have a website. i created a mirror of it and uploaded it in a directory called 'mirror' what i wanted to do is whenever a viewer access for example..
http://www.mysite.com/this-page/another-segment/?id=1
i want him to be redirected to..
http://www.mysite.com/mirror/this-page/another-segment/?id=1
i want to edit my site's design but i dont want viewers to get confused of random changes in the website design.
if there is another way other than using htaccess please do suggest it thank you
Solution
after browsing around the internet. i came up with the idea of putting a /$1, a rewritebase and followsymlinks on the answer givien by appclay
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/mirror/
RewriteRule (.*) /mirror/$1 [R=301,L]
OTHER TIPS
You'll want to do something like:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/mirror/
RewriteRule ^/(.*) /mirror/$1 [R]
In your .htaccess file.
