Description of my issue:

I am wondering the best apporach to combining the redirects I have in my old .htaccess file with the one created by Admin Tools.

I have a lot and it dont want to manually put in the redirect section.

1) Can I manually put in the .htaccess file?
2) Should I put in the 'Custom rules' section?

Thanks in advance -

You will have to put them in the Custom Rules section, the one which goes in the header of the file. You can, of course, put them in the file manually, but the next time you click on "Save and Create .htaccess" you will have to manually edit the file again - not a very practical idea!
