### BEGIN - KB migration redirects to kb.anhonesthost.com ###
# Added 2026-08-01. The WHMCS knowledgebase is retired; these 301s send its
# URLs to the equivalent page on the dedicated KB.
#
# ORDER MATTERS. Article and category URLs share the shape
#   /knowledgebase/<id>/<slug>
# and their IDs COLLIDE (article 5 is "What are my Name Servers?", category 5
# is "WordPress Specific"). The only discriminator is the trailing ".html" on
# articles. Article rules therefore come first and terminate with [L]; the
# category rules below can then match broadly because anything ending .html
# has already been redirected and will never reach them.
#
# The slug is ignored by WHMCS (only the id is read), so it is ignored here
# too — any slug with the right id resolves to the right destination.
#
# The trailing "?" on each target discards the inbound query string.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

# --- Legacy query-string URLs -----------------------------------------
# Pre-SEO-URL links still in old tickets and emails:
#   knowledgebase.php?action=displayarticle&id=<id>
#   knowledgebase.php?action=displaycat&catid=<id>
# WHMCS used to 301 these to the friendly URL itself, but our rules above
# now intercept first — so map them explicitly or they all land on the KB
# home page and lose their destination.
#
# "(^|&)id=" cannot match "catid=" (the preceding char is "t", not & or
# start-of-string), so the two sets can't cross-fire.
