title: Redirection Loop Error in Wordpress Website
body: <p>I have switched to a new website design (to wordpress from static),so in-order to map old pages to new pages i edited the htacess file,But it resulted in a redirection loop and the site was down after days.So i removed the htacess file.How am i supposed to do proper redirection.</p>
  
  <p>Here are the Redirection code contents from the htacess</p>
  
  <pre><code>    # BEGIN WordPress
      &lt;IfModule mod_rewrite.c&gt;
      RewriteEngine On
      RewriteBase /
      RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
      RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
      RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
      RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
      &lt;/IfModule&gt;
  
      # END WordPress
  
  
  Redirect /test1.htm http://www.mysite.com/test1
  
  Redirect /test2.htm http://www.mysite.com/test2
  </code></pre>
