Forum moved to a new folder

Hello Dolly!

 

I've just update a PHPBB forum and moved it to a new location. I'd like all links directing to the old forum redirecting to the new one. Here's the change of URLs :

 

www.website.com/fr/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1234

 

to

 

www.website.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1234

 

so, I'd try this :

 

RewriteEngine on

RewriteRule ^/fr/forum/viewtopic.php([a-z/.]*)$ /forum/viewtopic.php$1 [R=301,L]

 

...but I'm not sure it'll work. Any help please?

 

Thanks for your time.

Thanks for the reply.

 

I've tried this :

 

RewriteEngine on

RewriteRule /fr/forum(/?.*) /forum$1 [R=301,L]

 

... but it sends me back to the "This forum is disabled" message. I tried to enabled the forum back but it just send me to the old forum post (fr/forum), not in the new forum (/forum).

 

I know the .htaccess works because I had this before and it was working :

 

DirectoryIndex index.php
