Hello,

My html catalog times out so mosty of the pages shows as now found, is there a way to set something like when they find something like this, page refresh automatically and go to home page?

A custom 404 redirect would work.

Or, you could add a redirect in your .htaccess file if you want to redirect all traffic from your catalog folder.

What control panel software does your server use?

Thanks.

I think they use Plesk Software , I am hosting with Globat.com

Google serched 245 Pages from html catalog but they are not completely generated by html catalog, there are 1100 products but that's all it can generate.

I guess i will just make custom 404 redirect link hopefully that will work.

Yeah, you could use a custom 404 with a refresh in the header.

I am having some problems creating a 301 redirect in my .htaccess. The reason I am doing this is I do not want to remove some out of date products from the site rather I want the customer to still be able to click on the discontinued product link when listed using the products.tpl however have it link to the new replacement product This is what I have entered in my .htaccess:

redirect 301 /mydir/customer/product.php?productid=100001&cat=&page=1 http://www.mysite.com/mydir/customer/product.php?productid=100002&cat=&page=1

I think the problem has to to with the usage of the "?" and "&" in the document location. I have other 301 redirects established in my .htaccess for static pages that are working jsut fine. Any help would be great!
