Url Redirection

Hi Team,

i like to redirekt URLs like i do currently in my WP Plugin “Rank Math”.

e.g.

domainname.com/mylinktoredirect

Can you let me know, how to do this in Blocapp, please.

Thanks in advance

You can do this with an htaccess file on the server or if you prefer via cPanel or most other control panels.

Hi Flashman,

thanks. I can do this with cpanel? Great! My provider use this.

Have a great day!

Yes just login and look for the redirect option. You then enter the start url in one field, followed by the destination url in the other one. It’s a one minute job and easy to delete when no longer needed. By doing it this way cPanel will basically create the htaccess file for you.

Hi Flashman,

i already use this tool for some redirects.
But I have a concern.

The first entry works

The 2nd not

When i do this in Rank Math (2nd option) it works.
Currently i do this redirection in rank math.

You likely have to put in the full url. It also looks like you have http rather than https.

this is the form from cpanel.

i can choose the domain put behind the directory (like in rank math also) and set the domain where i want to redirect. in rank math it works. in cpanel not.

Your url doesn’t have www so I would choose the option without it, though in theory either should be OK. If it still isn’t working try your web host.

You could also just create a file called htaccess with the following text:

Redirect 301 /test https://www.bild.de/

When that is done just rename the file as .htaccess

That will make it invisible, but the redirect should work.
