I am using cPanel 11 and WHM 11.3.0.6. and I’m trying to setup domain redirect/forwarding for one of my primary domains. I’ve logged onto cPanel and under Redirects typed in mydomain1.com that I want redirected. Then in redirects to I have mydomain2.com. I have checked Redirect with or without www. and then clicked Add. The redirect shows up at the bottom in the table, but it doesn’t work.

In addition in WHM I’ve tried following the documentation (Setup/Edit Domain Forwarding) on creating domain forwarding. I’ve created a direction map by placing mydomain1.com in the left box and http://www/mydomain2.com in the right box (which is the redirection URL). I then click Save Map and then go to mydomain1.com and it still shows up.
On mydomain1.com I am “running” html. However, on mydomain2.com I am running WordPress with permalinks. I don’t know if that is causing the problem. If so, is there a work around because I need permalinks to work.

Obviously I’m missing something here. I am REALLY knew to cPanel and WHM so any detailed instructions you could provide would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks,

Brian
