301 redirect in .htaccess - how to make it work?

Hi I need to re-direct some pages to the homepage of opencart.

For examle:
https://mywebsitenamehere.com/index.php ... e/register

301 redirect to:
https://mywebsitenamehere.com/

Snippet of my .htaccess:

# SEO URL Settings
RewriteEngine On
# If your opencart installation does not run on the main web folder make sure you folder it does run in ie. / becomes /shop/

RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^sitemap.xml$ index.php?route=extension/feed/google_sitemap [L]
RewriteRule ^googlebase.xml$ index.php?route=extension/feed/google_base [L]
RewriteRule ^system/storage/(.*) index.php?route=error/not_found [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !.*\.(ico|gif|jpg|jpeg|png|js|css)

RewriteRule ^([^?]*) index.php?_route_=$1 [L,QSA]

Thank you!!

Why don't do that from Cpanel?

Hi, these pages are opencart pages on an opencart site.

Again, this topic IS NOT related to OpenCart, .htaccess is a common server configuration file. Use Google to find a solution.

Agreed.

If you want a core solution then consider using opencarts event system to handle the redirect.
