I have two domains. Let's call them domain1 and domain2. Domain2 is an addon domain to domain1. I have moved all the files from domain1 to the domain2 folder inside domain1's file directory, and everything works perfectly, BUT.. I need to re-direct the old domain to the new one, so if someone goes to

www.domain1.net/hello
it will re-direct to
www.domain2.net/hello

and I don't just mean for certain URLs like above. I mean EVERY URL. Also, can this be done for images also? I've posted images on these forums (and elsewhere) from domain1 and would like them to still show.

If anyone could help me with this I'd appreciate it a heap. Thanks.

Copied this off a website, currently using this to set my "/blog" as my main domain instead of the actual one.

PHP код:

<?php
/* Redirect browser */
header("Location: http://theos.in/");
/* Make sure that code below does not get executed when we redirect. */
exit;
?>

If that's php code, that means it'll be in a php file, but users aren't going to get to that php file if they're going to a link to an image?

It needs to be something in .htaccess I assume (I know NOTHING about this D:)

EDIT:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.newdomain.com/$1 [R=301,L]

:D So simple!

Thanks for trying to help anyway.

Gonna keep that somewhere for future references. No problem, and thank you

.htaccess files work for any file or directory, so you're deffinately right there. Redirecting an entire website to another URL with .htaccess works as followed:

Код:

Redirect 301 / http://www.my-other-website.com

Rewriterule is to format the urls differently I think. (for example website.com/?p=page to website.com/page)

You need to setup a DNS client on your VPS. Then, you gotta setup nameservers both on the VPS and then your domain CP (Atleast, I had to do it on a Windows 2008 R2 server).
