Wordpress Themes - WP Forum at BFA
There will be no more development for Atahualpa (or any other theme), and no support. Also no new registrations. I turned off the donation system. I may turn the forum to read only if it gets abused for spam. Unfortunately I have no time for the forum or the themes. Thanks a lot to the people who helped in all these years, especially Larry and of course: Paul. Take care and stay healthy -- Flynn, Atahualpa developer, Sep 2021

Unhappy [SOLVED] Migrated blog from /blog to root folder and cannot redirect. Any help?

I migrated my blog from the /blog location to the root folder this weekend. Sadly, all my attempts to redirect so that my SEO rankings and links are preserved seem to be going south. I added the following bit of code in the .htaccess folder:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
rewriterule ^blog(/.*)? $1 [L,R=301]

Let's just say it didn't do re-directs the way I wanted them. It just redirected every internal link in the website (say on post titles or comment links, etc...) go back to the home page in the root folder. All my old /blog links (with the exception of images) just led back to the home page in the root folder as well. ACK! Does anyone have any idea what I've done wrong?
