How can I redirect from one subdomain to another in .htaccess?

Question

Recently we changed the name of a subdomain, now we need to redirect all the old pages to the new subdomain pages.

Example page links:

• Old URL: http

Answer 1

This worked for me, and maintains the URI:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^jquery\.webcodehelpers\.com
RewriteRule (.*)$ http://uieiq.webcodehelpers.com/$1 [R=301,L]

I used this to redirect a subdomain to another subdomain.

Answer 2

Enable mod_rewrite and .htaccess through httpd.conf and then put this code in your DOCUMENT_ROOT/.htaccess file:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^jquery\.webcodehelpers\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://uieiq.webcodehelpers.com%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301,NE]
