I am redirecting via .htaccess so that when they enter my domain.com site it will take them to www.domain.com. This works fine, but when the url contains some get variable it gets lost.
Example:
Entering domain.com/archive.php?var=something.
I get redirected to www.domain.com/archive.php
Losing the get variable var=something...
In my htaccess I have the following:
RewriteRule (.) http://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]
#redirigir index.html e index.php a raiz
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/index.php
RewriteRule ^.$ http://%{HTTP_HOST} [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/index.html
RewriteRule ^.*$ http://%{HTTP_HOST} [R=301,L]
What am I doing wrong?
Hey i think this can work for you
Options +FollowSymlinks -MultiViews
RewriteEngine on
# for http
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?domainA\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} =80
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domainB.com/$1 [R=301,L]
# for https
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?domainA\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} =443
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.domainB.com/$1 [R=301,L]
This should be working according to htaccess tester http://htaccess.madewithlove.be/
I'm trying to get url's in the format subdomain.domain.com to resolve to domain.com/index.php?sub=subdomain
However I've also want any links in the form subdomain.domain.com/pagename to redirect to domain.com/index.php?tpl=page&sub=subdomain&url=pagename
At the moment the first rule works if i remove the second rule but if I include both only the second rule works.
Here's the full htaccess
RewriteEngine On
#EDIT: this was messing it all up by appending index.html so the subdomain only
# wasn't triggering at all due to appended pagename
DirectoryIndex disabled
#Remove www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.example.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://example.com/$1 [R=301,L]
#Rewrite if subdomain only
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(^.*)\.example.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://example.com/index.php?sub=%1 [P,NC,QSA,L]
#Rewrite if internal page
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(^.*)\.example.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.+/)?([^/]*)$ http://example.com/index.php?tpl=page&sub=%1&url=$2 [P,NC,QSA,L]
If you answer this I will make you Secretary of State once Flat Earth goes mainstream. Thanks!
Have it like this:
DirectoryIndex disabled
RewriteEngine On
#Remove www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(example\.com)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://%1%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L,NE]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^/?$ index.php [L]
#Rewrite if subdomain only
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?!www\.)([^.]+)\.(example\.com)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ http://%2/index.php?sub=%1 [P,QSA,NC,L]
#Rewrite if internal page
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?!www\.)([^.]+)\.(example\.com)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(?:.+/)?([^/]+)/?$ http://%2/index.php?tpl=page&sub=%1&url=$1 [P,QSA,L]
I would like to redirect www.example.com to example.com. The following htaccess code makes this happen:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.example\.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://example.com/$1 [L,R=301]
But, is there a way to do this in a generic fashion without hardcoding the domain name?
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%1/$1 [R=301,L]
Same as Michael's except this one works :P
But if we need to do this for separate http and https:
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%1/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%1/$1 [R=301,L]
Redirect non-www to www (both: http + https)
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
If you want to do this in the httpd.conf file, you can do it without mod_rewrite (and apparently it's better for performance).
<VirtualHost *>
ServerName www.example.com
Redirect 301 / http://example.com/
</VirtualHost>
I got that answer here: https://serverfault.com/questions/120488/redirect-url-within-apache-virtualhost/120507#120507
Here are the rules to redirect a www URL to no-www:
#########################
# redirect www to no-www
#########################
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://%1/$1 [R=301,NE,L]
Here are the rules to redirect a no-www URL to www:
#########################
# redirect no-www to www
#########################
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?!www\.)(.+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.%1/$1 [R=301,NE,L]
Note that I used NE flag to prevent apache from escaping the query string. Without this flag, apache will change the requested URL http://www.example.com/?foo%20bar to http://www.example.com/?foo%2250bar
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ https://%1/$1 [R]
The RewriteCond captures everything in the HTTP_HOST variable after the www. and saves it in %1.
The RewriteRule captures the URL without the leading / and saves it in $1.
Try this:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ %{HTTP_HOST}$1 [C]
RewriteRule ^www\.(.*)$ http://$1 [L,R=301]
If the host starts with www, we stick the whole host onto the start of the URL, then take off the "www."
Complete Generic WWW handler, http/https
I didn't see a complete answer. I use this to handle WWW inclusion.
Generic. Doesn't require domain info.
Forces WWW on primary domain: www.domain.com
Removes WWW on subdomains: sub.domain.com
Preserves HTTP/HTTPS status.
Allows individual cookies for domain / sub-domains
Please let me know how this works or if I left a loophole.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
# Force WWW. when no subdomain in host
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^[^.]+\.[^.]+$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS}s ^on(s)|off [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http%1://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
# Remove WWW. when subdomain(s) in host
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS}s ^on(s)|off [NC]
RewriteCond http%1://%{HTTP_HOST} ^(https?://)(www\.)(.+\.)(.+\.)(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1%3%4%5%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
There can be a lot of misinformation out there about htaccess redirects, I find. First off, make sure your site is running on Unix using Apache and not on a Windows host if you expect this code to work.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%1/$1 [R=301,L]
(Make sure there are no line spaces between each line of text, though; I have added an extra space between lines so it renders okay in this window.)
This is one snippet of code that can be used to direct the www version of your site to the http:// version. There are other similar codes that can be used, too.
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%1/subfolder/$1 [R=301,L]
For subfolder
www to non www with https
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%1/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !on
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
For those that need to able to access the entire site WITHOUT the 'www' prefix.
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http%{ENV:protossl}://%1%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
Mare sure you add this to the following file
/site/location/.htaccess
Using .htaccess to Redirect to www or non-www:
Simply put the following lines of code into your main, root .htaccess file.
In both cases, just change out domain.com to your own hostname.
Redirect to www
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain\.tld [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.tld/$1 [L,R=301]
</IfModule>
Redirect to non-www
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.domain\.tld [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://domain.tld/$1 [L,R=301]
</IfModule>
I used the above rule to fwd www to no www and it works fine for the homepage, however on the internal pages they are forwarding to /index.php
I found this other rule in my .htaccess file which is causing this but not sure what to do about it. Any suggestions would be great:
############################################
## always send 404 on missing files in these folders
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(media|skin|js)/
############################################
## never rewrite for existing files, directories and links
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
############################################
## rewrite everything else to index.php
RewriteRule .* index.php [L]
RewriteEngine on
# if host value starts with "www."
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.
# redirect the request to "non-www"
RewriteRule ^ http://example.com%{REQUEST_URI} [NE,L,R]
If you want to remove www on both http and https , use the following :
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.
RewriteCond %{HTTPS}s ^on(s)|offs
RewriteRule ^ http%1://example.com%{REQUEST_URI} [NE,L,R]
This redirects
Non ssl
http://www.example.com
to
http://example.com
And
SSL
https://www.example.com
to
https://example.com
on apache 2.4.* you can accomplish this using a Redirect with if directive,
<if "%{HTTP_HOST} =='www.example.com'">
Redirect / http://example.com/
</if>
use: Javascript / jQuery
// similar behavior as an HTTP redirect
window.location.replace("http://www.stackoverflow.com");
// similar behavior as clicking on a link
window.location.href = "http://stackoverflow.com";
Or .htaccess:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
Rewritecond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.yoursite\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://yoursite.com/$1 [R=301,L]
and The PHP method:
$protocol = (#$_SERVER["HTTPS"] == "on") ? "https://" : "http://";
if (substr($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'], 0, 4) !== 'www.') {
header('Location: '.$protocol.'www.'.$_SERVER ['HTTP_HOST'].'/'.$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
exit;
}
Ajax
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: reqUrl,
data: reqBody,
dataType: "json",
success: function(data, textStatus) {
if (data.redirect) {
// data.redirect contains the string URL to redirect to
window.location.href = data.redirect;
}
else {
// data.form contains the HTML for the replacement form
$("#myform").replaceWith(data.form);
}
}
});
The only way I got it to work...
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^site\.ro
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.site.ro/$1 [R=301,L]
If you are forcing www. in url or forcing ssl prototcol, then try to use possible variations in htaccess file, such as:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
### Force WWW ###
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example\.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]
## Force SSL ###
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://example.com/$1 [R,L]
## Block IP's ###
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from 256.251.0.139
Deny from 199.127.0.259
This is updated to work on Apache 2.4:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.*)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%1/$1 [R=301,L]
The only change vs Michael's is to remove the [NC], which produces the "AH00665" error:
NoCase option for non-regex pattern '-f' is not supported and will be ignored
The selected answer and many other solutions here dropped the the part of the url after /, so basically it always redirected to main domain, at least for me.. So i am adding working sample respecting full path after slash..
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%1%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
Alternative approach if .htaccess customization is not ideal option:
I've created simple redirect server for public use. Just add A or CNAME record:
CNAME r.simpleredirect.net
A 89.221.218.22
More info: https://simpleredirect.net
I am not sure why u want to remove www.
But reverse version would be:
# non-www.* -> www.*, if subdomain exist, wont work
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^whattimein\.com
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.whattimein.com/$1 [R=permanent,L]
And advantage of this script is:
if u have something like test.whattimein.com or any other (enviroments for developing/testing)
it wont redirect U to the original enviroment.
Added if localhost, ignore redirection (for development purpose in local environment). If not localhost AND (not https OR it’s www), redirect to https and non-www.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !localhost [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
Add
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.(.*)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%1/$1 [L,R=301]
to your .htaccess before any other rule.
Hi you can use following rules on your htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]
i made a website by expressionengine, in the htaccess i need to remove the index.php and also add www to none www url's.
here is my current .htaccess:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
# Add www to url
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
# Directs all EE web requests through the site index file
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L,QSA]
# Removes index.php from ExpressionEngine URLs
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^GET.*index\.php [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/system/.* [NC]
RewriteRule (.*?)/index\.php/*(.*) /$1$2 [R=301,NE,L]
</IfModule>
but the above code has some problems, it works when the url has the www itself and there is no index.php anywhere and everything is fine, but when i remove the www from the url to test the "add www" part it does not work any more and the url damages lik this:
http://www.example.com/index.php?/segment1/segment2/
an index.php comes up. i don know what to do, any help will be appriciated
Try this..
RewriteEngine On
#Redirect non-www to www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
it will remove index.php from the URL and add www as a prefix.
The www redirect probably doesn't work because there's no wildcard, keep it simple and specify your domain:
# Redirect to www
# -------------------
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]
I expect you have the removal and addition of index.php the wrong way around, I redirect it first if specified in the URL, then add it in hidden:
# Redirect specific index.php requests in URL
# ------------------------------
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^GET.*index\.php [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/system/.* [NC]
RewriteRule (.*?)index\.php/*(.*) /$1$2 [R=301,L]
# Directs all EE web requests through the site index file
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L,QSA]
Also try with and without the ? on this line, depending on the server setup, this might not be needed:
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L,QSA]
or
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]
I want to remove the default index.php that auto comes with Codeigniter.
I've been able to remove that with this code
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
example.com/index.php/blog can now be accessed by example.com/blog
I later wanted to prefix the URL with a www i.e example.com/blog should redirect to www.example.com/blog with these rewrite rules
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?!www\.)(.+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.%1/$1 [R=301,NE,L]
After adding this code above to the end of my .htaccess file, it began to misbehave.
If I enter www.example.com/blog into a URL bar it works fine but if I enter example.com/blog it redirects to www.example.com/index.php/blog
What I'm I doing wrong?
I want example.com/blog to redirect to www.example.com/blog
Note: I am using the Codeigniter framework.
Added: This code is just on top of the previous ones I have up. Maybe this is it's problem please HELP!!!
RewriteCond $1 !^{index\.php|[assests/images/themes/fonts/style/scripts/js/install]|robot\.txt|favicon\.ico}
Try this:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ example.com/$1 [L,R=301]
After much tricks and following the post given by #Tpojka I was able to come up with this
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
# Removes trailing slashes (prevents SEO duplicate content issues)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.+)/$ $1 [L,R=301]
# no www -> www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?!www\.)(.+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.%1/$1 [R=301,NE,L]
# Checks to see if the user is attempting to access a valid file,
# such as an image or css document, if this isn't true it sends the
# request to index.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
This guy was my problem
RewriteCond $1 !^{index\.php|[assests/images/themes/fonts/style/scripts/js/install]|robot\.txt|favicon\.ico}
I would need help on how to exclude folders and some files like robot.txt file like I tried in the malfunctioning line.
This is the complete .htaccess file which I use personally:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS}s ^on(s)|
RewriteRule ^ http%1://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
