I want one of my secondary WordPress sites to point visitors to my main domain with a clean 302 temporary redirect. The site in question is essentially a “site redirect” page already, so nothing complex is running on it—no heavy plugins, no e-commerce data to migrate—just a straightforward hop over to the primary URL. What I need from you is the safest, search-engine-friendly way to put that 302 in place. Ideally this is handled at the server or .htaccess level (Apache) or via Nginx config if that’s what you prefer; a lightweight WordPress plugin solution is acceptable only if it keeps page-speed overhead to zero and doesn’t leave any cruft behind once the redirect is live. Deliverable: • A working 302 redirect from the WordPress root that sends every request (including inner pages) to the homepage of my main site, without creating redirect loops or stray 404s. I’ll verify by clearing cache, running a curl -I request, and checking Google Search Console for proper temporary status. Once everything passes, the job is done.

Hi, I can set this up cleanly and safely for you. For this kind of job, I would handle the 302 at server/.htaccess level first so it stays lightweight and avoids plugin overhead. I’ll make sure all inner URLs route properly to the main homepage, with no redirect loop or stray 404 behavior. I can also verify the response headers once it’s in place.

Hi, I can implement the 302 redirect cleanly at the server level, avoiding unnecessary WordPress/plugin overhead. I’ll configure it so: Every request from the secondary domain redirects to the main domain homepage. The response is a genuine HTTP 302 Temporary Redirect. No redirect loops or stray 404s are created. Existing HTTPS/www variations are handled correctly. Apache .htaccess or Nginx will be used depending on your hosting stack. I’ll verify the response with curl -I and test multiple URLs, including inner pages. Caching will be checked so the old response doesn’t interfere with testing. I’ll keep the change minimal, reversible, and search-engine friendly, with no unnecessary plugin installation. I have strong experience with WordPress, Apache/Nginx, DNS, redirects and hosting-level troubleshooting. Ready to implement it immediately. Ali Asif

Server-level is the right instinct here — a plugin still boots all of WordPress before redirecting, so I'd do it in .htaccess above the WordPress rewrite block with a RewriteRule using [R=302,L] so every inner page hops to your main homepage before WP ever loads. The two things that usually bite on these: the rule must exclude the target host to avoid a loop if both domains share a docroot, and .well-known needs to stay reachable so SSL renewal doesn't break — I'd handle both. On Nginx I'd do the same with a server block returning 302 on `location /`. Afterwards I'll verify with curl -I on the root, a few deep URLs and a non-existent path to confirm a clean 302 with the right Location header and no 404s or chains, and leave the original config backed up so reverting is one file swap. I can start immediately with hosting or FTP access.

Hi, this looks like a small redirect task, but the real issue is making sure the rule is applied at the correct layer so you do not create loops, cache conflicts, or SEO dilution. I’ve worked on production web systems where a simple routing change had to be handled carefully across WordPress, hosting, and live traffic behavior. I usually start by identifying whether the redirect belongs in site logic or server handling, then verify canonical behavior and response codes before changing anything. The closest examples here are Custom Feature Development & Integration and Squarespace Checkout Streamlining for Meal Service -- 2, both of which involved stepping into an existing live setup and correcting flow behavior without disrupting the rest of the site. For this kind of work, I typically isolate the source URL patterns, confirm the intended destination behavior, and check for anything already intercepting requests upstream. That keeps the fix clean, predictable, and safe for long-term production use. If useful, I can quickly review the current redirect path and identify the exact place the rule should live. Thanks, Hercules

Hi there, I’ve handled WordPress redirect setups like this before. Since your goal is a clean temporary redirect with no extra overhead, I’d keep it server-side where possible and test for loops, broken paths, and header response after setup. It’s a small job, but it still needs to be done carefully so Search Console and curl checks pass cleanly.

Hi, It looks like the main concern is keeping the redirect clean and reliable without slowing things down. A 302 at the server level is the safest way to do this, so it won’t interfere with caching or cause SEO issues. I’ve set up similar redirects before on static-heavy WordPress sites, and the part that usually needs the most care is making sure the rule catches all incoming paths without creating loops. I can handle this in .htaccess for Apache or in the Nginx config if that’s what your host uses. Either way, the change is minimal and leaves no extra footprint once it’s live. The only real unknown is how the hosting provider handles config overrides, but that’s easy to test with a quick curl -I check before finalizing. Thanks, Denis.
