I plan to move my wass instalation to different URL, a subfolder of the previous.
for example: now installed in qwerty.com, i want to move to qwerty.com/shop/

how can i do this?
should i use htacess to redirect the pages? i don't want to loose my index in search engine.
what code should i put in htacess?

thank you in advance

This code should work better as it preserves URL parameters:

Code:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond  %{REQUEST_URI} ^/(?!shop|published|login|installer)
RewriteRule (.*) /shop/$1 [R=301,L]

If you have no mod_rewrite installed or enabled on your server, you may use RedirectMatch for the same purpose:

Code:

RedirectMatch 301 ^/(index.php)?(?!shop|published|login|installer) /shop/$1$2

Rat, does this code also work for the categories and products page as well?
for example, if googled indexed mywebsite.com/product/xyz, then after I applied these code in htacess, and some one click that link, will be automatically redirected to mywebsite.com/shop/product/xyz, is this correct?

Yes, it should work exactly this way. Test it on a local copy of your store before applying the code to a live website.

I found out that wass default index.php already have a redirect command
so, I just need to replace it with my landingpage index.php

thank you rat
