Hi,
I'd like to figure out how best to strip random query strings applied by
external sites to our links like this:
https://linuxsecurity.com/features/top-6-vulnerability-scanning-tools?ZhdOK=VBKCrHPPeszbcJQ
The problem is that Google considers them unique URLs, which creates a
duplicate content situation.
This rule matches, but just creates what appears to be an implicit 302
redirect without a 200:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/features/(.+)
RewriteRule ^ https://webstage.linuxsecurity.com/features/%1 [QSD]
I also tried [L,QSD] but that appears to be the same.
Is it possible to strip a query string from a URL without also
redirecting it? I'm adding QSD to existing redirects where applicable,
but this would just be for URLs that aren't currently being redirected.
