I have a wordpress page I’m trying to redirect to from the root directory. I can’t use the traditional built in method of setting a wordpress page as the home page because of technical reasons caused by a plugin I’m using. So I’m trying to outsmart the plugin by using htaccess.
Here is what I currently am trying in my .htaccess file
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^$ /?grp_pages=4 [NC]
It’s throwing an Internal Server Error. I think this is hiding wordpress’ index.php file from itself and causing the error?
You need to check that the query string isn’t already set:
