I found the solution. I need to use the below code to catch the query string.
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^querystringtext$
Problem solved.

Hi,
I'm trying to configure some 301 redirects.
The old URL looks like this :
www.mydomain.tld/article.php?id=1
I need it to redirect to a new URL like this
www.mydomain.TLD/category-name/article-name
This Works : note I removed the ?id=1 from RewriteRule ^article\.php$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mydomain\.tld$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.mydomain\.tld$
RewriteRule ^article\.php$ "http\:\/\/www\.mydomain\.tld\/category-name\/article-name" [R=301,L]
This does not work - Note : RewriteRule ^article\.php?id=1$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mydomain\.tld$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.mydomain\.tld$
RewriteRule ^article\.php?id=1$ "http\:\/\/www\mydomain\.tld\category-name\/article-name" [R=301,L]
Thank you for any guidance.
