I hope it's ok to post on this thread. I am redirecting my original post to here since it seems this thread is where this question should be.
I'm stumped. I have ultimate seo properly redirecting products. The site's newsletter is referring to the products by an old syntax. When I add a redirect 301 it's completely ignored!
This is the .htaccess:
NOTE: Replace /shop/ with the relative web path of your catalog in the "Rewrite Base" line below:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
From Ultimate SEO URLs
RewriteRule ^(.)-p-(.)$ index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteRule ^(.)-c-(.)$ index.php?main_page=index&cPath=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteRule ^(.)-m-([0-9]+)$ index.php?main_page=index&manufacturers_id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteRule ^(.)-pi-([0-9]+)$ index.php?main_page=popup_image&pID=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteRule ^(.)-pr-([0-9]+)$ index.php?main_page=product_reviews&products_id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteRule ^(.)-pri-([0-9]+)$ index.php?main_page=product_reviews_info&products_id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
For Open Operations Info Manager
RewriteRule ^(.*)-i-([0-9]+)$ index.php?main_page=info_manager&pages_id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
For dreamscape's News & Articles Manager
RewriteRule ^news/?$ index.php?main_page=news&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteRule ^news/rss.xml$ index.php?main_page=news_rss&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteRule ^news/archive/?$ index.php?main_page=news_archive&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteRule ^news/([0-9]{4})-([0-9]{2})-([0-9]{2})$ index.php?main_page=news&date=$1-$2-$3&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteRule ^news/archive/([0-9]{4})-([0-9]{2})$ index.php?main_page=news_archive&date=$1-$2&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteRule ^news/(.)-a-([0-9]+)-comments$ index.php?main_page=news_comments&article_id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteRule ^news/(.)-a-([0-9]+)$ index.php?main_page=news_article&article_id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
All other pages
Don't rewrite real files or directories
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?main_page=$1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
And this is the line being ignored:
redirect 301 /product_info.php?products_id=9 http://www.b-naturals.com/aspen-cran...ct-90-tabs-p-3
Instead of finding the right page, the product_info.php?products_id=9 request just goes to the 404 not found page.
Any ideas on how to fix?
