Redirecting

[Connor Smith]

Hello There,
Was wondering how I can redirect example.com to example.com/something/this.thing/1234.
Pretty simple thing, but not sure how to do it

Thanks!

<?php
header( 'Location: http://example.com/something/this.thing/1234/' ) ;
die();
?>

Where does that php code go exactly ?

Looks like a PHP script you would call.

Are you referring to using a rewrite to redirect via your .htaccess (or nginx rewrite rules)?

Create an index.php in the location you want to redirect, stick that code in it.

Obviously im assuming this isnt the same place you have xenforo installed, and its in your /something/ subfolder instead.

Yeah i have it in the "community" directory, so to be clear, does the index.php go in my root directory ? im guessing it does, but just to be clear.
