A company I\'m working for had a WIX based site. I recreated the site on WordPress moved the hosting and redirected the domain. I then attempted to do the page redirects to the
i managed to redirect from wix to wordpress by adding this code (by Themee) to the functions.php on my theme directory.
function themee_hash_redirects() {
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
function themee_hashtag_redirect( hashtag, url) {
var locationHash = document.location.hash;
if ( locationHash.match(/#!/img) ) {
if ( hashtag == locationHash ) {
document.location.href = url;
}
}
}
// Examples how to use themee_hashtag_redirect
themee_hashtag_redirect('#!dvd-content/c1yws', '/dvd-content/');
themee_hashtag_redirect('#!krav-maga-shirts/c9r5', '/krav-maga-shirts/');
</script>
<?php
}
add_action('wp_footer', 'themee_hash_redirects');
as i understood, this only help to redirect your visitors to the correct URL, but not help to SEO. i think the next code (in the .htaccess file) should help SEO, but still need some modification that i dont know about. this was an help by "barryhunter" from Google Forum.
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^_escaped_fragment_=krav-maga-shirts/c9r5
RewriteRule ^$ http://www.972kravmaga.com/krav-maga-shirts [QSA,L]
its an example of one page redirect. the person who helped me said can check if its working on this page: http://www.rexswain.com
its will be nice if someone can determine what exactly should be written in the .htacess file.
I had the same situation. The only solution I found is to create redirect.js file with the following content:
var hashesarr = { "#!about-us/c1it7":'/about-us/',
"#!patio-covers/ce54":'/patio-covers/',
"#!lattice/c1mz":'/patio-covers/lattice/' };
for (var hash in hashesarr) {
var patt = new RegExp(hash);
if (window.location.hash.match(patt) !== null) {
window.location.href = hashesarr[hash];
}
}
Then you should upload this file to your server and include it between <head></head>
tags. This should do the trick.
Since wix URLs are hashtags, they cannot be redirected via .htaccess. You must use javascript to redirect urls, e.g.:
var redirects = {
'#!about/c10fk':'about',
'#!contact/c10fk':'contact',
'#!help/c10fk':'help'
};
if(window.location.hash != '' && redirects.hasOwnProperty(window.location.hash)) {
window.location.replace(redirects[window.location.hash]);
}
