I've just changed permalinks in my wordpress site.
And my old links were like that,
http://www.sitename.com/category/postname.html
Now new links are
http://www.sitename.com/category/postname/
I'm getting 404 error at old links, how can i redirect all .html pages to new non .html pages with .htaccess?
In the htaccess file, just put:
Redirect 301 /postname.html http://www.sitename.com/category/postname/
The accepted answer (above) from Jon Lin caused some issues for me.
This is my result, which works well, and is a bit more compact.
It works for both, with and without directories in the path.
Oneliner:
RedirectMatch 301 ^/(.*)\.html$ /$1
Or if you need it limited by host:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} myDomain.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.html$ /$1 [R=301,L]
Example:
