WordPress MU

Hello,

We're just about to launch the intranet site I've been working on for the last few months. Hurray!

But... We need to add a few redirects to make the old site (static HTML files) point to the new site. I'm trying to do it using mod_rewrite in apache.

I've added the following in my .htaccess file:

#redirect index.html
RewriteRule ^index\.html /index\.php

However, this doesn't work... When I go to /index.html on my site, I get a 404 error page.

I'm wondering if this is because of my ingorance of RewriteRules, or something else. Should this work on an MU install?

I'm running my site over SSL - could this interfere w/ the Rewrite Rule?

Rewrites aren't my strong suit at all, but I did find this:

Thanks Andrea. Unfortunately, that didn't work. We went with an old-fashioned solution of putting a meta-refresh in the index.html file, and adjusting the web server to look at index.php first.

Cheers,

Anca.
