I am asking the same question that has already been asked several times but none of them has answered so far.

I want to redirect the website to the clone folder on the web server.

Following URL was previously in use.

http://www.websiteurl.com/vshop/index.php?page=shop.product_details&product_id=440

Now i've a new setup on the same URL but different folder.

http://www.websiteurl.com/payonline/index.php?page=shop.product_details&product_id=440

The first folder name is "vshop" and 2nd one is "payonline".

Can somebody please tell me how can i keep the complete url, but change the folder name, I don't want to use "search or replace" feature. I might need to change the complete domain.

Please do also tell me if .htaccess is better of php script will work fine. Thanks

    Do you mean changing the **folder name** rather than the **domain**? – Alex Lau Feb 24 '15 at 09:47
  • here I wanted to change the **folder name**, but then i decided to remove only **folder** in the **redirected url.** . BTW. domain is same. – MFarooqi Feb 24 '15 at 15:05

This Htaccess RewriteRule should do it for you.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^vshop/(.*) payonline/$1 [QSA]
