Where to add 301 redirects in bulk using .htaccess ?
Permalink
I have lots of 301 redirects for my new concrete 5.7.4 website. Right now, I am adding 301 redirects by going to
page setting -> location -> Other URLs that should redirect to this page
I have to do this for every page.
Is it possible to do this at once using .htaccess file ? Where should I place .htaccess file ?

Does redirects from pages uses .htaccess method ?
I mean, if I add redirects to pages one by one, will it use .htaccess method ?
Because I am in fear that , lots of .htaccess redirect will slow down my pages.

No redirects set on pages are different.
What's in htaccess will trump everything.
You should think about how you do it though as you don't want too many 301 redirects. It's not good practice.
If you have page redirected because of just part of the url that changed for instance, you probably only need one redirect for all of them.
Say you have several page like so:
http://page-url/some-folder/page-name...
And you want all of them redirected to
http://page-url/some-other-folder/page-name...
where the same bit of the url changes for all your pages...
Than, don't set a redirect for each page, set a redirect for any page including the "some-folder" bit to go to "some-other-folder"

I have website in HTML with 3000 pages and have good page rank. Now I am migrating my website to concrete5. I will keep same structure of URL but there won't be .html extension.
And I don't want to loose page rank. That's why I am using 301 redirects from old HTML site to new concrete site.
What should be the best option for that ?

I am no htaccess expert but you can do this
With that, any file named somefile.html will be redirected tohttp://example.com/somefile/
I suggest you check this page:http://www.webweaver.nu/html-tips/web-redirection.shtml...
Know that htaccess will not work on a Windows server.
RedirectMatch 301 (.*)\.html$ http://www.example.com$1/
With that, any file named somefile.html will be redirected tohttp://example.com/somefile/

I have applied above rule to .htaccess file.
But my site is in subdirectory called "C5"
Website URL :http://www.codersvolt.com/c5
When I try to open a page with HTML, this rule adds one more C5 to URL.
For URL :www.www.codersvolt.com/c5/services.html...
redirects to : www.www.codersvolt.com/c5/c5/services.html...
Instead of :www.www.codersvolt.com/c5/services.html...
Below is my .htaccess code

Below is my .htaccess code
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /c5/ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}/index.html !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}/index.php !-f RewriteRule . index.php [L] </IfModule> RedirectMatch 301 (.*)\.html$ http://www.codersvolt.com$1
I would say that's due to this line
But I'm not sure so you'd have to test
RewriteBase /c5/

This was added by concrete5 for pretty URL

you might want to try to put your RedirectMatch 301 before the other concrete5 pretty url stuff
I've solved it By using this code.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^$ index.php [L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}/index.html !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}/index.php !-f RewriteRule . index.php [L] </IfModule> RedirectMatch 301 (.*)\.html$ /$1/
