LMAP .htaccess rewrite rules with google analytics - Help needed

privsec

Ahh, I see. I am using the .php file as that was what was recommended above.

If I could do it all in one place than that is preferred.

If I do it in the .php file, is the redirect immediate?
I do not want the end user to sit and wait or anything

robi

It's as immediate as you make it, with messages, delays or not.

privsec

Everything I'm finding online keeps referring to use .htaccess to do the redirect.

So can you point me in the right direction?

privsec

Actually, I just found

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html lang="en-US">
    <head>
        <meta charset="UTF-8">
        <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=http://example.com">
        <script type="text/javascript">
            window.location.href = "http://example.com"
        </script>
        <title>Page Redirection</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        <!-- Note: don't tell people to `click` the link, just tell them that it is a link. -->
        If you are not redirected automatically, follow this <a href='http://example.com'>link to example</a>.
    </body>
</html>

And I found

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
 
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="1; url=http://example.com">
 
<script>
  window.location.href = "http://example.com"
</script>
 
<title>Page Redirection</title>
 
<!-- Note: don't tell people to `click` the link, just tell them that it is a link. -->
If you are not redirected automatically, follow the <a href='http://example.com'>link to example</a>

privsec

So I still don't know what is wrong. It should be working.

This is now what I have in index.php


<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html lang="en-US">
    <head>
        <meta charset="UTF-8"><meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=https://discord.gg/bG$$$$$$$">
        <script type="text/javascript">
            window.location.href = "https://discord.gg/bGH$$$$$$$"
        </script>
        <title>Community</title>
    </head>
    <script async src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=G-H65$$$$$$$"></script>
<script>
  window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];
  function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);}
  gtag('js', new Date());

  gtag('config', 'G-H65$$$$$$$');
</script>
    <body>
        <!-- Note: don't tell people to `click` the link, just tell them that it is a link. -->
        If you are not redirected automatically, follow this <a href='https://discord.gg/bG$$$$$$$'>link to our community</a>.
    </body>
</html>

This is my .htaccess file

# Permanent URL redirect 
# RewriteEngine on
# Redirect 302 / https://discord.gg/b34345345345

privsec

The redirect is working as I would expect it to, but GA isn't working

robi

That does not look like a php file. Perhaps rename it to .html

privsec

Renamed from index.php to index.html

redirect works, GA doesn't

privsec

I noticed my GA was outside my head tag (DOH!) but even after moving that, it still isn't being recognized.

privsec

AAannnnnd now it is working. I wish I could tell you why, but I don't.

Thanks @robi
