# Adding Rewrite Rule

 * Hi All,
 * I am using WP 2.0 and want to add a simple redirect rule to my blog that will
   redirect a user from ataom.xml to /feed/atom/. The blog was originally created
   with Blogger. I have just added an extra item to the default .htaccess file (
   see below). It’s not working. Can someone suggest how to fix it?
 * Thanks in advance,
 * Jose
 * # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond%{
   REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.
   php [L]
 * RewriteRule /atom.xml?$ /feed/atom/
 * </IfModule>
 * # END WordPress

 * Above your #BEGIN WordPress put:
 * RedirectPermanent /atom.xml [http://yordomain/feed/atom](http://yordomain/feed/atom).
