How to reset WP page url with deleting the variables

Question

In my unsubscribe script there is this command:

http://www.domain.nl/email-acties/[email protected]

after the unsubscribe I like to change the url into

http://www.domain.nl/email-acties/

But WordPress does not accept again header(). Also try

echo esc_url( remove_query_arg( 'email' ) );

That works but does not rewrite the url.

Question:

How can I rewrite the url as written above

Answer 1

Why not create an if statement to check if the email arg was passed, if so, redirect to the URL without the email. Something like:

if ($_GET['email']) {
  //do unsubscribe stuff
  wp_redirect('http://www.domain.nl/email-acties/');
  exit;
}
