   I have tried the following redirect methods, but receive different errors for each. What redirect code should work 100% of the time?

   redirect 301 /index.html http://www.site.org/index.php
   -brwoser redirect error

   RewriteEngine on
   RewriteRule index\.html index.php [NC,R]

   -site 404 error

   <META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" CONTENT="1;URL=http://site.org/index.php">
   -redirect loop- keeps looping back to index.html

   The first method should work. You should hopefully be making changes to your .htaccess file in the root of your site. Here's a little bit more direction on doing so:

   I know this may sound simple, but make sure you have an index.php file in the root to be redirected to.

   Hope this helps!

   Thank you

   I realized I had to add the index.html redirect inside of the index.php utilizing 301 redirect plug-in. Not certain why it would not work w/ the htaccess file.
