Hi,

 

I already moved my shop to another host. Now I want to close (deactivate) my shop on old host and get some kind of re-direction to new address.

 

When I do disable my old shop, customers got message: "In order to perform site maintenance, our online shop has shut down temporarily. We apologize for the inconvenience and ask that you please try again later", nothing more. I would like:

1. As a best solution - automatic re-direction to new address;

2. As a good solution - message with click-able link to new address;

3. As a OK solution - message with new address;

 

How I can arrange it? Please, help.

why not just do a 301 redirect of the old shop to the new shop (assumption is you are moving to new URL)

 

place this in the .htaccess of the old shop.

 

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule (.*) http://YOUR_NEW_SHOP_URL_GOES_HERE/$1 [R=301,L]

Hi,

Thank you for the advice.

However, I never modified the .htaccess manually:

1. Where I have to put this code?;

2. Should I delete all other from .htaccess?;

3. In .htaccess I see: "PLEASE DO NOT MODIFY THIS FILE MANUALLY. IF NECESSARY, ADD YOUR SPECIFIC CONFIGURATION WITH THE HTACCESS GENERATOR IN BACK OFFICE". Can I do this modification by BO?;

 

Regards

what version of ps is your old site?

 

if you are closing your old site, then just put this in the top of your old .htacess, if the old site is 1.4 you can update the .htaccess via the back office...under generators if I remember correctly.

Version is 1.4.6.2

Thus, I can just put 

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule (.*) http://YOUR_NEW_SHOP_URL_GOES_HERE/$1 [R=301,L]

to window "Specific configuration" and generate new .htacess?

Thank you.

perfect...of course replace with your URL....

I did it and got error message:

"Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request."

Both BO and FO do not work.

 

I put old .htaccess, but in vain. I deleted .htaccess - the same error.

What is wrong?

You need to post exactly what you put in your .htaccess...as you may have not done it correctly.

 

It's possible that mod_rewrite is not installed on your hosting service.

 

Use this code, though if mod_rewrite is not installed, the code will do nothing to achieve your goal.

 

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on 
RewriteRule (.*) http://YOUR_NEW_SHOP_URL_GOES_HERE/$1 [R=301,L]
</IfModule>

Now with old .htaccess it works again. But does not work with modified .htaccess. :(

It is the modified .htaccess:

The method (301) redirect is the preferred method. Don't give up on that.

 

http://support.googl...en&answer=83105

 

Using the previous (last post) I gave you try until you get it working.

1. Should I erase all from my .htaccess file and write only your code? 
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule (.*) http://YOUR_NEW_SHOP_URL_GOES_HERE/$1 [R=301,L]
</IfModule>

2. Or I should add your code to window "Specific configuration" and generate new .htacess?

you would only need this code in your .htaccess file

Now nothing works again:

"Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, [email protected] and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log."

 

I returned old .htaccess file, and all work as before.
