How to redirect PHP header header location using PHP generated url

It's pretty simple, but I can't seem to solve it.

I am creating a wordpress site and I want to redirect to my 404 page using PHP instead of javascript.

<?php header("Location: www.myblogurl.com"); ?>

And I use this on my wordrpess sites to get my blog url ...

<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>


But I cannot combine the two PHP scripts, please see my failed attempt below.

<?php

    $location = bloginfo('url');

    header( 'Location:' + $location ) ;

?>

This seems to echo my website url instead of redirecting.

Can anyone help me please, thanks.

bloginfo

in wordpress echo information instead of returning it. You must use get_bloginfo

.

The docs say:

This always prints the result to the browser. If you need values ​​to use in PHP, use get_bloginfo()

.

The sample will look like this:



<?php
header('Location: ' . get_bloginfo('url'));
?>

You are using +

2 strings to concatenate. This is not true in PHP, it +

is a mathematical operator for things like $result = 1 + 1

. You need to use the .

: operator $text = 'hello' . 'world'

.

Use this:

<?php

    $location = bloginfo('url');

    header( 'Location:' . $location ) ;

?>

You have used Javascript syntax for concatenation in PHP

<?php

    $location = bloginfo('url');

    header( 'Location:'.$location ) ;

?>

This should be your syntax.

Use dot (.)

not a plus (+)

.

header( 'Location:' . $location ) ;
