Live Streaming Every Sunday - Want to Redirect between 8:30am through 12:00pm to 'Live' Page

Permalink
I looked through other forums and found some stuff similar, but not exactly what I am looking for. Apologies if this is redundant in any way.

My church streams live every Sunday from 8:30AM - 12:00PM. Currently, we have a 'WATCH LIVE' box that shows up on the existing site,http://www.vcclockport.com every Sunday, during the specified times. This site was built with Concrete 5.2 and is almost entirely driven by HTML / CSS Coding. While it works, the church has requested an updated and refreshed site. So I am working on beta.vcclockport.com as the updated site. This is running on COncrete 5.4+ - I am looking for a way to have the home page redirect to another c5 page - Only during the specified time on Sunday.

Home Page of the beta project:http://beta.vcclockport.com/
Desired Page of the redirect, to occur on Sundays from 8:30 - 12:00 -http://beta.vcclockport.com/index.php/media/attendlive...

I already have the streaming player embedded on the attendlive page, and it works on Sunday mornings. But I want to automatically make thathttp://beta.vcclockport.com/index.php/media/attendlive... the first page that people see during the specified times. Any suggestions?

Oh and if it is possible... I would like to add a timed page redirect from thehttp://beta.vcclockport.com/ page to occur approximately 2 minutes after the page has loaded and played the embedded video, redirecting visitors to thehttp://beta.vcclockport.com/index.php/about/... page.

Forgive me all. I know this may be a significant request of help, and may be quite redundant. I am quite new at working with Websites. I have been thrust into the position of website administrator for our church, and have VERY limited prior experience on this matter - I am definitely a NUBE.

Any assistance to either redirect request would be AWESOME and greatly appreciated!

For anyone that is interested...
Here is what I found that worked for me:

I have updated the .htaccess with the following code:

# -- concrete5 urls start --
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
# -- concrete5 urls end --
# -- timed redirect for sunday live stream --
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond   %{TIME_WDAY}%{TIME_HOUR}%{TIME_MIN} >00750
RewriteCond   %{TIME_WDAY}%{TIME_HOUR}%{TIME_MIN} <01100


I am using SiteGround for my host, so the initial re-write code is for the Pretty URL feature. The Timed Redirect for Sunday Live stream starts serving the alternate page (our live page) Sundays at 07:50 and stops serving the alternate page, returning to the normal page on Sundays at 11:00. You could also use this timed redirect option to offer a special promotion at a given time, and return to the normal page after the promotion ends.
