Hi there,
I just finished a project where we convinced the client to make the switch from the dark side (read: Joomla) to Get Simple. And they absolutely love it!
Only thing left is some 301 redirects from the old Joomla pages to their new GS counterparts, although I am having some difficulties there as a result of the url structure of their previous Joomla site.
They didn't use fancy urls there, so the urls contains things like: ?option=com_content&task=view&id=16&Itemid=32
Having searched through the forum I found the pointers above, which seemed to work for the persons trying them.
However, when I try something along the lines of:
it will yield a 'page not found'.
I also tried combinations with the site url in there, without index.php, etc. Nothing seems to work so far...
I have included the redirect code in the exact same position as Chris' example above.
Somebody have any idea how to redirect a Joomla-esque url like above correctly?
