Do you know how to successfully do this on an smf forum? I'm not able to sign in when using this method.

Hi,

If I want to redirect all pages from my old website to the home page of my new website, would this be enough:

RedirectMatch 301 (.*) http://www.newdomain.com/

Great post! I found it really useful. Any idea if the header redirect is seo fiendly. Aa far as I know the best one is the .htaccess one. Any advice on this issue.

Heya - the Python example actually would prompt a 302 redirect

In order to prompt a 301, note that you would need to utilize the HttpResponsePermanentRedirect class a la:

from django import http
def view(request):
return http.HttpResponsePermanentRedirect ('http://www.askapache.com')

Reference: httpresponse-subclasses

The links under the "Redirect Method" section appear to have been meant to be anchor links, yet they all redirect to your main page (askapache.com). I'm thinking the anchor tags on the page weren't done correctly.

Which would be the preferred redirect method: PHP or Mod Rewrite ? Why?
I'm just curious abut it.
