Redirect subdomain to another laravel subdomain

I had a laravel project on a sub-domain and I migrated to another sub-domain.

I want to redirect all requests from old sub-domain to the new one.

For example:

https://old.website.com
https://old.website.com/login
https://old.website.com/contact

Should become:

https://new.website.com
https://new.website.com/login
https://new.website.com/contact

I moved all the files to another folder and added .htaccess with the following code:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://new.website.com/$1 [R=301,L]

But the issue is that public is added to the url for example:

https://old.website.com

Becomes:
https://new.website.com/public

So I get 404 not found error.

For the sub-domain I set the document root to point to public folder so no need to add the public directory to the url.

    By the sounds of it, you likely have an internal rewrite to the /public subdirectory. Try the following instead:

    RewriteRule ^ https://new.website.com%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

    Test with 302 (temp) redirect first to avoid potential caching issues. You will need to clear your browser cache before testing.

    I have this solution on one of my projects. To redirect requests from old sub-domain to the new one without the public folder in the URL, you could need to modify the .htaccess file. You can try the following code:

        RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^old.website.com$ [OR]
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.old.website.com$
    RewriteRule (.*)$ https://new.website.com/$1 [R=301,L]

    This should redirect all requests to the new sub-domain while preserving the rest of the URL. This way, you should be able to access the pages at their new URL without encountering a 404 error.
