We upgraded to Joomla but kept our shop on the old site. The new site became www.abc.com, the old site became www.xyz.com.

On the new Joomla site I have a menu link to the shop pointing to www.xyz.com/shop.

However, we are still getting hits to www.abc.com/shop. Is there any way I can use JoomSEF to redirect those to www.xyz.com/shop instead of generating a 404 error?

The problem is when I create a custom redirect it asks for an old non-SEF url that starts with index.php, but right now I just have a menu link pointing to an external URL (www.xyz.com/shop).

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Update: Nevermind, I just added a mod_alias rule to .htaccess and that solved the problem.
