I want www.example.com/blog.php to redirect to www.example.com/blog.php?post=welcome without breaking the .php script.
Simply redirecting /blog.php to /blog.php?post=welcome will break the file and return a page loading error.
I want /blog.php to immediately redirect to /blog.php?post=welcome, and want all the functions of blog.php to work as is.
I tried .htaccess rewrite code but its not working.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !blog.php$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ blog.php?post=welcome [L,R=301]
Please help with the rewrite code.
Thanks
You can use:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^blog\.php$ %{REQUEST_URI}?post=welcome [L,R=301,NC]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^$ [NC] ensures that redirect happens only when query string is empty this preventing a redirect loop.
Make sure to test in a new browser.

I've two types of URLs:
http://www.example.com/?content=contact_form.php
and
http://www.example.com/?content=product.php&id=20
I changed my whole URL system like this:
http://www.example.com/file/contact_form
and
http://www.example.com/product/I-m-the-title/20
Of course I made 301 redirect with .htaccess to tell Google and co. the new URL.
I made it like this:
# Rewrite URLs
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(ignore)($|/) - [L]
RewriteRule ^file/([^/]*)$ /?content=$1.php [L]
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)/([^/]*)/([^/]*)$ /?content=$1.php&title=$2&id=$3 [L]
# Redirect old URL to new URL
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^content=contact\_form\.php$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^\/$
RewriteRule .* http://www.example.com/file/contact_form? [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^content=product\.php&class=I-m-the-title$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^\/$
RewriteRule .* http://www.example.com/I-m-the-title/Test/20? [R=301,L]
My problem:
It's perfectly working for: http://www.example.com/?content=product.php&id=20
But for http://www.example.com/?content=contact_form.php I'm getting the message that it couldn't get opened because of too much redirect.
Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong? I hope anybody can help me soon because I have to fix it before Google misinterprets it.
Your rule cause an infinite loop because it is rewriting your uri to the same location again and again overriding your internal and external redirects.. To fix the Rewrite loop, add the following at the top of your htaccess
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} 200
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
I have one project online and it on two diffrent domains 1)www.example.com and 2)www.example.co.in. now, I want to redirect
www.example.co.in/category/
to
www.example.com/ceramic+industry/
And I want to redirect it through .htaccess or from server. I tried from server that only redirect domain name not directory, and also tried from .htaccess where I can redirect only domain or only directory not when both domain and directory combine. My project in php. So, you can give advise if it's possible in php also.
Add following rule in .htaccess(placed at root of website www.example.co.in):
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^category/(.*)$ http://www.example.com/ceramic+industry/$1 [L,R=301]
or use 302 for temporary redirects.
IF you also want to redirect whole .co.in website to .com THEN add next line(remember in .com website's .htaccess these two Rules should not be there.)
RewriteRule ^category/(.*)$ http://www.example.com/ceramic+industry/$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [L,R=301]
If for any reason you are bound to use same .htaccess on both site then use condition like this:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.example.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^category/(.*)$ http://www.example.com/ceramic+industry/$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.example.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [L,R=301]
============================================================
Solution to your another query:
This can be done by PHP. As I guessed all URL after category/ is handled by one PHP page.
in that PHP page code this at top:
if(isset($_GET['company'])){
$company=$_GET['company'];
$companyNew=str_replace('_','+',$company);
if($company!=$companyNew){
header("location:/category/?company="+$companyNew,true,301);
//header("location:/ceramic+industry/?company="+$companyNew,true,301);
exit;
}
}
You can try this:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^your.first.domain$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://your.second.domain/$1 [R,L]
This will redirect, if your request contains existing directory name.
Answer to your comment. You can try this:
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_FINISH} !^$
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^company=(.*)\_(.*)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /$1?company=%1+%2 [R,L,E=FINISH:1]
First two lines allow you to prevent infinite loop redirect.
I need to redirect on a bunch or URL's in my website.
I have
http://www.myurl.lt/lt/imone/landstar-lt-lt/?cms_action=manage and I need to redirect it to http://www.myurl.lt/lt/imone/landstar-lt-lt/
I have about 700 of them, so is it possible to do a redirect with one redirect command?
This rules should remove the cms_action param, but preserve all other params
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(.+?&|)cms_action=[^&]*(?:&(.*)|)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %{REQUEST_URI}?%1%2 [R=301,L]
Place this rule in /it/imone/.htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /it/imone/
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /([^?]*)\?cms_action=manage [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1/? [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !(^|&)cms_action=manage(&|$) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %{REQUEST_URI}?cms_action=manage [L,QSA]
Instead of using a Rewrite, which doesn't make any sense to me in this situation, why don't you just redirect the user directly from the manage action? This will definitely add to clarity. If you were using PHP for example:
// Inside manage action
header('Location: http://www.myurl.lt/lt/imone/landstar-lt-lt/');
If want to redirect all non-www requests to my site to the www version. All I need to do is add the following code to my .htaccess file.
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mydomain\.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/subfolder
RewriteRule .* http://www.mydomain.com%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
The problem is that when I write for example mydomain.com/products-1 (hidden URL for mydomain.com/products?category=1), all parameters become visible, even though they are specified on the .htaccess file, and I get an output url (after the redirect) of www.mydomain.com/products-1?category=1
How can I fix this? Is there any kind of problems with the .htaccess code above?
Try Changing your RewriteRule:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.example\.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/subfolder
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [L,R=301]
I prefer this because it will catch all *.domain.com. If that is not what you want, then use your original HTTP_HOST rule.
If my logic is working this morning, this rule should rewrite any requests that do not match:
www.example.com
and do not contain
/subfolder
to
www.domain.com/URI
Currently I set a rewrite rule like so, to produce clean and simple url's.
.htaccess
RewriteRule ^/about$ about.php [L]
But what i need to do is something a little different, the other way around. For example if a user clicks the following link
about
They would go to the about page /about
Currently the about page resides at index.php?a=about&b=user and this can't be changed unfortunately. As you can see it does not look very nice in the browser address bar.
EDITED
I am using a pre-made script from phpdolphin, which is working fine. But the url are all index.php based and i would like to clean them up
Currently the only code within the .htaccess file
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{request_filename} -f
RewriteRule ^(.*) $1 [L]
RewriteRule ^(([^/]*)+)(/([^/]{0,32})(/.+)?)?$ index.php?a=$1&q=$3 [L]
Add this rule before your existing rule:
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s/+index\.php\?a=([^&]+)&b=user[\s&] [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1? [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^([^/.]+)/?$ index.php?a=$1&b=user [L,NC,QSA]
You can add this RewriteRule to redirect the request when user hit index.php?a=about&b=user
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(.*)a=about(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^index.php /about [L,NC,R=301]
or you can use php header() function in index.php to redirect the request:
if ($_REQUEST['a'] == about) {
header('Location: /about');
exit;
}
Try this i checked and it works ...
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([A-Za-z0-9-+_%*?]+)/([A-Za-z0-9-+_%*?]+)/?$ index.php?a=$1&q=$2 [L]
Note: add additional signs between [] if necessary
OR This
RewriteRule ^([^~]+)/([^~]+)/?$ index.php?a=$1&q=$2
I like to use this code because it's short and matches everything except for ~ which is very very rare to see in a url
