• On my hosting platform I have two WP installations. One for the main domain (splendesco.nl) and one for a subdomain (zakelijk.splendesco.nl) in a subfolder. I had redirects set up in de root htaccess as follows
    Redirect 301 /workshops /workshops-en-trainingen/

    That was all working fine. After creating the subdomain however, the subdomain would also pick up the redirects, so I changed the code.

    The complete htaccess in the root folder is now (I have numbered the redirect lines)

    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    # custom redirects
    Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
    #
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.splendesco\.nl$ [NC]
    RewriteRule .? –[S=5]
    1. > RewriteRule ^/workshop\-enneagram/(.*)$ /workshops\-en\-trainingen/workshop\-enneagram/$1 [R=301,NC,L]
    2. > RewriteRule ^/workshop/(.*)$ /workshops\-en\-trainingen/$1 [R=301,NC,L]
    3. > RewriteRule ^/workshops/(.*)$ /workshops\-en\-trainingen/$1 [R=301,NC,L]
    4. > RewriteRule ^/training/(.*)$ /workshops\-en\-trainingen/$1 [R=301,NC,L]
    5. > RewriteRule ^/trainingen/(.*)$ /workshops\-en\-trainingen/$1 [R=301,NC,L]
    # end of custom redirects
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>
    # END WordPress

    This only partially works. Lines 1 and 3 work as expected. Lines 4 and 5 keep giving me a 404 and do not redirect. Line 2 does an incoreect redirect to https://www.splendesco.nl/workshops-en-trainingen/workshop-enneagram/.

    I already tried the SEO redirect plugin. The redirects then works, but also the problem is back with them also being called from the subdomain.

    So basically the questions is: if the above htaccess has problems, where are the problems, or: how would I set up redirects in such a way that they all work ONLY on the main domain and not on the subdomain.

    Sorry for the long post. Thanks for your help.

    John
