How can I redirect specific URLs ending in .PHP to another URL in Nginx?

  • 772

If the URL ends in .HTML I have no problem controlling it and redirecting it within Joomla. But if ends in .PHP I get the 404 page.

I assume it can be fix one of two ways: 1. Give Joomla control of URLs ending in PHP so that I can redirect the URL from within Joomla or 2. Try to do it within the NGINX config:

location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
}

location /oldsignup.php {
   rewrite ^/.* http://example.com/signup.html permanent;
}

location /oldsignup2.php {
   rewrite ^/.* http://example.com/signup.html permanent;
}

I tried the above but it failed.

    Fixed it with:

    rewrite ^/oldsignup1.php$ http://example.com/signup.html permanent;
rewrite ^/oldsignup2.php$ http://example.com/signup.html permanent;

location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
}
