Ive set up a few 301 redirects via C-Panel because I've revamped the site. (Ive deleted and moved some pages pages.)
But it's been a couple of days and the redirects I've set up ain't redirecting :(

Example : chookchooks.com/server system recources.html is set to redirect to http://www.chookchooks.com/
Because I no longer use that server system recources page, Ive set a 301 redirect to redirect to the home page.

Is anyone else,
or help with this?

Thanks,

You have a file name with spaces in it? and misspelled "resources"?

yeah, that's how the Original address was.
Hence why I would like to 301 redirect them ;)

You have a link I could try? [nevermind, found one on Google]

Also, post the contents of your .htaccess file that contains the redirects

His .htaccess:
Code:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^chookchooks\.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.chookchooks\.com$
RewriteRule ^wodonga_weather\.html$ "http\:\/\/www\.chookchooks\.com\/albury\-wodonga\-weather" [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^chookchooks\.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.chookchooks\.com$

I've been told by a buddy that spaces in an address may not be handled by .htaccess nicely and to try adding a %20 in the space.

So /server system recources.html becomes /server%20system%20recources.html

Nothing :( still won't redirect...

Ive removed all the other redirect via C-Panel so I can concentrate on just this one to work first.
Any other help, direction, or clues, ? (yes Ive goggled and searched this forum)

[Resolved] After trying all that Google was telling to do in .htaccess and having no luck doing the redirect via the C-Panel ...
I looked at a WordPress Plugin called Simple 301 Redirects.

Problem solved :D

Cheers'
