I have created new website https://example1/ and I have one old site https://example/. We have a customer support ticket portal and that portal URL is https://support.example/. Now I have changed the support portal URL into https://support.example1/ Now I want to add redirection for following conditions on .htaccess.

3. Redirect https://support.example/ticket/124 into https://support.example1/ticket/124

• redirect
• htaccess

• To clarify, you only want to redirect the support subdomain on HTTP only? You don't want to redirect the domain apex (your new site) and you don't wish to redirect to HTTPS? – MrWhite Commented Oct 11, 2019 at 9:22

• You only want those 3 URLs redirected? And the support subdomain also points to your wp installation (is this also handled by wp)? – MrWhite Commented Oct 11, 2019 at 9:53
• The 2nd and 3rd are example there will be ticket number will change there is lot of tickets we need to redirect that for all tickets for 2nd and 3rd – developerme Commented Oct 11, 2019 at 9:55

To redirect just those 3 URLs (with variable ticket number) on the support subdomain then you can do something like the following before the WordPress front-controller (assuming the support subdomain resolves to the same place and is probably handled by WP) using mod_rewrite, in the root .htaccess file:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^support\.example\ [NC]
RewriteRule ^((?:a/)?ticket/\d+)?$ https://support.example1/$0 [R=302,L]

Change to a 301 (permanent) redirect only when you are sure it's working OK.

Note that this doesn't specifically redirect HTTP to HTTPS.
