How to redirect “301 Permanent” a directory with hundreds of urls !

  • Hello

    I have installed a link directory in my blog, after a few months I went on and deleted it.

    Now, my blog is:
    https://www.domain.com

    The directory was:
    https://www.domain.com/directory

    The problem is that google has indexed all the directory categories, details pages….etc

    Now I have hundreds of dead pages indexed in google and when I visit one of these pages, it shows the blog main page.

    What do I need to do to redirect “301 Permanent” ANY url under mydomain.com/directory to the main page mydomain.com

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thank You.

    No one has a general idea on how to do this ?

    RewriteRule ^directory/(.*)$ /$1 [R=301,NC,L]

    .. you would have found the answer on google in seconds if you had looked.

    Its not working but thanks anyway.

    The following code is working for me. Place it in the .htaccess of the folder you wana redirect, not the .htaccess in root !

    Options +FollowSymLinks
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.domain.com [R=301,L]
