Htaccess redirect ?

[FredC]

I recently started a new community on XenForo and left the root empty for future integration of a sophisticated home page however the time for that wont be for quite some time. So, in the meantime id like to redirect..

http://mysite.com

to

http://mysite.com/community/portal/

Any help would be greatly appreciated...

You can do it with an index file - I used to use a home.php file in the root when I had a page node for the "home" page.

<?php
header('Location: http://mysite.com/community/portal', true, 301);

Or you can just do a rewrite:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^$ /community/portal [L]
