Urlrewrite/redirect from old to new pages

Extending Umbraco
Hi..

We have relaunced our website and Google have indexed the old pages..
Now I want to make a permanent redirect from the old pages to the new ones..

http://www.google.dk/search?q=picopublish

E.g. the these pages:

/index.php -> /da/forside/
/index.php?id=webdesign -> /da/webdesign/
/index.php?id=easycatalog -> /da/katalogproduktion/easycatalog/

I have tried to make the redirect rule for the index.php page in UrlRewriting.config
```
<add name="indexRewrite"
    virtualUrl="~/index.php"
    rewriteUrlParameter="ExcludeFromClientQueryString"
    destinationUrl="~/da/forside/"
    redirect="Application"
    redirectMode="Permanent"
    ignoreCase="true" />
```
It also works for index.php which redirect to /da/forside/ .. but e.g. /index.php?id=webdesign then redirect to /da/forside/?id=webdesign ..

How can setup the rules to match index.php .. and match index.php with the quuerystring?

I found that I could redirect index.php like this:

<add name="oldRewrite"
virtualUrl="^~/index.php$"
    rewriteUrlParameter="ExcludeFromClientQueryString"
    destinationUrl="~/da/forside/"
    redirect="Application"
    redirectMode="Permanent"
    ignoreCase="true" />

then I tried this for the other pages with querystrings after reading this post http://our.umbraco.org/forum/using/ui-questions/3114-url-rewrite-somepageaspxvar=VALUE----somefoldervalueaspx, but it did only work for that level (the level below da node) and the old page and new page must have the same name:

<add name="leveloneRewrite"
    virtualUrl="^~/index.php\?id=(.*)"
    rewriteUrlParameter="IncludeQueryStringForRewrite"
    destinationUrl="~/da/$1"
    redirect="Application"
    redirectMode="Permanent"
    ignoreCase="true" />

So instead I redirected the old page manual.. I'm sure if there is a easier way to do this?

<add name="webdesignRewrite"
    virtualUrl="^~/index.php\?id=webdesign"
    rewriteUrlParameter="IncludeQueryStringForRewrite"
    destinationUrl="~/da/webdesign/"
    redirect="Application"
    redirectMode="Permanent"
    ignoreCase="true" />
