# WordPress and htaccess

 * I am currently working on a htaccess file for my site [http://www.pandaandpenguin.com](http://www.pandaandpenguin.com)
 * I currently have the htaccess redirecting 1 IP to a custom 403.
 * I have the following in my htaccess, so far.
 *     ```
       Options +FollowSymlinks
       RewriteEngine on
       RewriteCond %{REMOTE_HOST} xx\.xxx\.xx
       RewriteRule \.php$ http://www.pandaandpenguin.com/errors/403error.html/[R=301,L]
       ```
   
 * I am also wanting to redirect one of my pages to a new page. The forums page 
   in my userbar I will need to link to [http://www.pandaandpenguin.com/forum](http://www.pandaandpenguin.com/forum)
 * I am not sure what the code for this is, or how to implement the code with what
   I have to make them still both work. I just learned about htaccess today, and
   have very little/no coding knowledge. Thanks in advance for your help!
 * P.S. My IP redirect works fine alone.
 * I just tried the following code with no prevail:
 *     ```
       RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^page_id=180$
       RewriteRule ^/page.php$ http://www.pandaandpenguin.com/forum? [L,R=301]
       ```
   
 * I added to the code that was already there, tried replacing the IP redirect with
   it just to see if it works, and neither way worked.
