I had recently moved all the content on my website from being in the www.mysite.com/shop directory to being in the root directory. This means that I needed to redirect any request to visit a page with the /shop directory back to the same page in the root directory eg.
www.mysite.com/shop/categories/washroom
to
www.mysite.com/categories/washroom
This needed to happen with all pages in my site that were previously using the /shop directory.
I was given a solution on here which was:
RedirectMatch (^/shop/)(.*) http://www.mysite.com/$2
and it works perfectly however now I have had to switch back to using our old version of our software which is located at the /shop directory so I need the complete opposite redirect now eg.
www.mysite.com/categories/washroom
to
www.mysite.com/shop/categories/washroom
Can anyone help me please?
