One Act Records to Rowboat Music Compatibility Scripts

This is a set of compability scripts that aim to preserve existing URLs for a site transitioning from One Act Records to Rowboat Music.

In particular:

• https://example.com/?r=[release] and https://example.com/release.php?r=[release] are redirected to https://example.com/releases/[release]/
• https://example.com/release.php is redirected to https://example.com/releases/ (in One Act Records this is a 404 error but this has been changed to align with the WIP Archive extension, in which https://example.com/wipa/wips.php redirects to https://example.com/wipa/ with no release name)
• https://example.com/wipa/wips.php?r=[release] is redirected to https://example.com/releases/[release]/#ref-list-wips
• https://example.com/wipa/wips.php is redirected to https://example.com/wipa/

Usage

These scripts require a PHP-enabled Web server (which you probably have if you were using One Act Records).

Add the PHP scripts to the static directory of your Hugo site so they will be deployed alongside the other files. (Make sure you keep the wipa directory.)

Index Configuration

You will need to configure your Web server to recognize both index.php and index.html as the index page, giving priority to index.php.

If you are using Apache, this can be done with the included .htaccess file. Add it to the static directory along with the PHP scripts (or add the lines to an existing .htaccess file).

If you are using a different Web server, please consult its documentation for setting the directory index.
