Attention: The Marketo Community will undergo scheduled maintenance on Tuesday, August 20th between 10-11 PM PDT. During this time, the Community and its content will not be accessible. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
Since you haven't provided your real domains, example pages, or screenshots, we can't review your work.
The method you've described, as long as you're not trying to redirect assets other than HTML pages (i.e. PDFs), is workable. If a URL appears as both a Redirect Rule "Original URL" and as a live LP URL on the same instance, the redirect takes priority (which is what you want).
So you have to give us more concrete examples of what you've tried.
