    Hi,

    what will happen if you directly went to this?

     http://testsite2.com/testapp/unsubs/unsubscribe.php

    try this:

    when HTTP_REQUEST {
    if { [HTTP::host] equals "testsite2.com" && [HTTP::uri] starts_with "/unsubscribe.php" } {
        HTTP::respond 301 noserver Location "/testapp/unsubs/unsubscribe.php"
    }
 }

    OR

    when HTTP_REQUEST {
    if { [HTTP::host] equals "testsite2.com" && [HTTP::uri] starts_with "/unsubscribe.php" } {
        HTTP::redirect "http://testsite2.com/testapp/unsubs/unsubscribe.php"
    }
 }

    SELECTED ANSWER - This will keep your parameters and will only replace the url: 

    when HTTP_REQUEST {
    if { [HTTP::host] equals "testsite2.com" && [HTTP::uri] starts_with "/unsubscribe.php" } {
        set uri [string map {"/unsubscribe.php" "/testapp/unsubs/unsubscribe.php"} [HTTP::uri]] 
        HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host]$uri" 
    }
 }

    let's try this:

    when HTTP_REQUEST {
    if { [HTTP::host] equals "testsite2.com" && [HTTP::uri] starts_with "/unsubscribe.php" } {
        set uri [string map {"/unsubscribe.php" "/testapp/unsubs/unsubscribe.php"} [HTTP::uri]] 
        HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host]$uri" 
    }
 }

    Got a response back from the developer and he said it's good to go.

     

    Thanks!
