I added some very simple redirect in the .htaccess in localwp:

```
Redirect 301 /test.xml /wp-json/custom/v1/test-xml

```

but it always redirects to [https://example.org:10029/wp-json/custom/v1/test-xml](https://example.org:10029/wp-json/custom/v1/test-xml)

It must not change the port, why this is happening, please?
