I want to redirect my main homepage to redirect (e.g. example.com) to a separate website but also redirect other subpages (e.g. example.com/contact) to a separate website as well. But when I redirect my main page it doesn't allow the other subpages to be redirected.

EXAMPLE:

  • example.com ---> example.org
  • example.com/contact ---> example.org/contact

I use UkCheapHosts to host my website and configure using cPanel. How can this work?

If I put a redirect onto example.com to redirect to example.org it works fine, but when I add another redirect from example.com/contact to example.org/contact, it doesn't work. I get 'Error establishing a database connection' when I try to access example.com/contact

SCREENSHOTS:

IMAGE ONE - THE REDIRECTS SECTION OF cPANEL The Redirects section of cPanel

IMAGE TWO - THE NOTES AND INFO SECTION OF REDIRECTS IN cPANEL The notes section on the redirects section in cPanel

IMAGE THREE - THE ERROR MESSAGE RECIEVED WHEN ACCESSING EXAMPLE.COM/CONTACT PROVING THE REDIRECT HAS NOT COME IN TO PLACE The error message recieved when accessing the /contact page after doing the redirect - it shows this message proving the redirect hasn't worked.

ALSO PLEASE NOTE THE WILDCARD REDIRECT OPTION HAS NOT WORKED
