Many of my 301 redirects from my old domain to my new CS-Cart store are working, but many are not.
Ones that are working are like:
redirect 301 /store/categories/Lingerie-Supplies/ /lingerie-supplies.html
If it's a URL without funny characters going to a URL with the same directory structure, I am fine.
My old cart put funny characters in URLs and you could not edit the URL for a product (a huge pain as you can imagine).
Like this:
/store/categories/Buckles-%26-Hardware/
and
I am having problems redirecting things within subcategories on the old site to the new site if the category structure is different. Example:
old site:
/store/categories/Decorative-Rhinestones/Rhinestone-Brooch/
new site I put in .htaccess file says:
/shop/rhinestone-brooch.html
It tries to go to:
/shop/decorative-rhinestones.htmlRhinestone-Brooch/
Which results in 404 on the new site.
Trying it through the cPanel doesn't work either.
CS-Cart support has even been kind enough to offer suggestions but no luck.
Maybe someone else has been able to migrate from a cart with funny URLs and has been successful.
I can live with it, I got the major ones I guess, just glad to be rid of the old cart.
