Include subfolder with .htaccess - php

I have a sub folder with php files.
Like this: domain.com/subfolder/file.php
It would be very useful to call the php files as if they were on the root folder, without ignoring the existing root files.
Is there a way to include a subfolder and all its contents through .htaccess?

You can use the following rule in root/.htaccess :
RewriteEngine on
#1--If the request is not for an existent root directory--#
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
#2--And the request is not for an existent root file--#
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
#3--Then, rewrite the request to "/subfolder"--#
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/?$ /subfolder/$1 [NC,L]
The RewriteConditions above are important to avoid rewriting your root folder and files to /subfolder.
Or try this :
RewriteEngine on
#--if /document_root/subfolder/foo is an existent dir--#
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/subfolder/$1 -d [OR]
#--OR /document_root/subfolder/foo is an existent file--#
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/subfolder/$1 -f
#--rewrite "/foo" to "/subfolder/foo--#
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ /subfolder/$1 [NC,L]

How about something like this?
RewriteRule ^subfolder/(.*)$ $1
It should help I think
P.S please make sure that apache rewrite module is enabled and turned of in .htaccess file

.htaccess error : The requested URL was not found on this server

I have a php file which is home.php
my url on localhost is
http://localhost:8888/photo/home.php
I want to remove .php from the url
so i create .htaccess file
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^home?$ home.php
but i keep getting this error
The requested URL /photo/home was not found on this server.
First of all, ensure your .htaccess file is in the base directory of your project. Next, follow these htaccess rules to set up your redirect.
The .htaccess solution you might be looking for is:
RewriteEngine On
#Neither a file nor a directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^photo/home$ photo/home.php [QSA,L]
Try it like this, in your photo directory.
RewriteEngine On
# neither a file nor a directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^home$ home.php [QSA,L]
I got this problem when I put the .htaccess code in the root .htaccess. It works when I create a new .htaccess in the subdomain folder on the same level with public_html folder and fill it with the RewriteRule needed

How to write url rewrite with OR operator?

This is file structure of the site :
site_one_folder
index.php
In site_one_folder there is a file:
controller.php
I want to write rewrite rule to
If people search www.mysiteurl/index.php or www.mysiteurl or www.mysiteurl/, it will run index.php
If people search instead of index.php :
example: I will search
www.mysiteurl/something.php
Then Browser will show the above url but content will have to be
`www.mysiteurl/site_one_folder/controller.php?para=something`
NB: para = searched file name excluding (.php)
Try adding this to the htaccess file in our root folder (where index.php is):
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)\.php$ /site_one_folder/controller.php?para=$1 [L,QSA]
Make sure mod_rewrite is enabled.
1st condition for direct access to index.php. 2nd to avoid infinite redirection
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/index.php$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/site_one_folder/controller.php$
RewriteRule ^(.+)\.php$ site_one_folder/controller.php?para=$1 [L]

Running Yii from subdir. Remove subdir with .htacces, while .css,.js and existing files and dirs still are available

I've been searching for 4 hours by now and I still can't get this to work.
I have the following directories in my webroot:
- application
- assets
- css
- config
- protected
- .htaccess
- ...
- .htaccess
- framework
- [Yii framework inside]
- .htaccess
The .htaccess in my webroot should redirect/'rewrite' all requests for whatever xxx/xxx to http://www.example.com/application/ as long as the requested file or directory does not exist.
This way requests for .css, .js and other files can still work.
In my config I made sure Yii expects SEO friendly URL's and I don't tend to use the index.php. So it now looks like this:
'urlManager'=>array(
'urlFormat'=>'path',
'showScriptName'=>false,
'rules'=>array(
'' => 'site/index',
'<controller:\w+>/<id:\d+>'=>'<controller>/view',
'<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>/<id:\d+>'=>'<controller>/<action>',
'<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>'=>'<controller>/<action>',
),
),
'request' => array(
'baseUrl' => 'http://www.example.com',
),
The 'request' was added later on because Yii was generating links as example.com/application/site/login. With the request Yii generates example.com/site/login instead.
In the .htaccess in my webroot I tried about everything.
First I was able to 'remove' the subdir from the URL. The index page was shown.
I tried to add a rule so all none existing directories would be redirected to the same url.
My first rule broke, and 'application' was in the URL again, but no css styles were loaded.
At this moment I got the index page with css, but now everything brings me to the index page.
my .htaccess looks like this:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^application/
# if a directory or a file exists, use it directly
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/application/$1 -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/application/$1 -d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ application/$1 [L]
# otherwise forward it to index.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?example.com$
RewriteRule ^.*$ application/index.php
Mod_rewrite is enabled (I know because some things worked before). I looked at examples from the Yii docs.
I tried solutions from other questions on Stack Overflow like this one and many many others.
Still no luck.
Could someone please help me out?
edit:
With the .htaccess above a request to example.com ends at example.com/application .. I however would like to make the 'application' 'invisible' again (worked before, don't know why it broke)
I did change my .htaccess as follows:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^application/
# if a directory or a file exists, use it directly
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/application/$1 -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/application/$1 -d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ application/$1 [L]
# otherwise forward it to index.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+)$ /application/
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?brainfeeder.be$
RewriteRule ^$ application/$1 [L,QSA]
But still a url like www.brainfeeder.be/site/login brings me to the default controller/action which is the site/index.
I guess my conditions or rules are not exactly correct yet.
Please see my small test application I set up to tackle this issue.
What happens: brainfeeder.be get rewritten to brainfeeder.be/application/ My Yii app is in there so it runs the 'bootstrap' index.php file and gets to the default controller/action, in this case site/index.
Now when you click the 'login' button it should show you a login form. But it stays at the site/index view.
Ok, once again I updated my .htaccess a couple of times. Now I have the following situation:
www.example.com AND example.com are rewritten to www.example.com/application AND example.com/application.
(www.)?example.com/existingfolder just shows content of 'existingfolder'.
(www.)?example.com/var1/var2/../varn get redirected to (www.)?example.com/application/var1/var2/.../varn
Now the only thing I would like to happen is that the latter gets rewritten instead of redirected. So visitors don't know they are in the directory 'application'.
So (www.)?example.com/var1/var2/.../varn would bring the visitor directly to the correct page.
The contents of my .htaccess at the moment:
Options +FollowSymLinks
#IndexIgnore */*
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?brainfeeder.be$
RewriteRule ^$ /application/ [L]
# if a directory or a file exists, use it directly
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -s [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -l [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^.*$ - [L]
# The directory or file does not exist
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-s [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /application/$1 [L,R]
The thing is, when losing the R flag in the last RewriteRule will bring me to the index.php file inside 'application' but it shows the home page instead of a login form when for example I go to example.com/site/login.
Which, I guess, the script does not see the vars. (if it did site/error would trigger) So it handles this as a request to example.com/application and not as example.com/application/var1/var2
I hope I did explain the problem better this time.
Thanks for the great help 'till now.
Try to check these configuration directives if you just want to rewrite all the unexisting /$var1/$var2 to /application/:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+)$ /application/
Now, if you want those unexisting files to redirect, rather than to rewrite them? Then just add a [R] flag at the end of the RewriteRule directive, just don't forget a single " " space before the flag.
Now, if you want to redirect /application to / and then rewrite /index.php to /application and to rewrite also the unexisting /$var1/$var2 to /application/$var1/$var2 then it's quite hard (and need some exact details) but you could still try these configuration directives:
RewriteEngine on
# rewrite index.php
RewriteRule ^index.php$ /application
# rewrite unexisting files
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?$ /application/$1/$2
# try to remove this if it causes redirection loop
RewriteRule ^application/?$ / [R]
You can also try to use DirectoryIndex application/index.php at the very top of those directives to change the index of your site and remove the line RewriteRule ^index.php$ /application if it causes an error.
Actually, I can't understand your question.. You said:
The .htaccess in my webroot should redirect/'rewrite' all requests for
whatever xxx/xxx to http://www.example.com/application/ as long as the
requested file or directory does not exist. This way requests for
.css, .js and other files can still work.
And now, you said to your comment:
So any link to brainfeeder.be/application/$var1/$var2 should be shown
as brainfeeder.be/$var1/$var2
If you would also like to redirect existing /application/$var1/$var2 to /$var1/$var2 then please try to add these directives, and if it causes an error to your system, just remove it:
# the condition is important as mentioned above
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.css$
RewriteRule ^application/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?$ /$1/$2 [R]
You can add another condition (as many as you like) at the top of the RewriteRule, just use your thinking if you're a programmer. You could add another condition like RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.jpg$ if you doesn't want to redirect the file with an extension like .jpg or else that you want such:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.css$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.jpg$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.png$
RewriteRule ^application/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?$ /$1/$2 [R]
Please try to change the source of your .htaccess file with this code:
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?brainfeeder\.be$
RewriteRule ^/?$ /application/ [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ /application/$1 [L]
Not sure what your question is ...
But here is an .htaccess that should accomplish what you want:
RewriteEngine on
# if a directory or a file exists, use it directly
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
# otherwise forward it to index.php
RewriteRule . index.php
You dont need to edit .htaccess. You just need to move the Yii entry script (index.php) and the default .htaccess up from the subdirectory to the webroot (so that they reside directly under public_html). After you move index.php and .htaccess to the root directory, all web requests will be routed directly to index.php under webroot (rather than to the subdirectory), thus eliminating the /subdirectory part of the url.
After moving the files, you will need to edit index.php to update the references to the yii.php file (under the Yii framework directory) as well as the Yii config file (main.php). Lastly, you will need to move the assets directory to directly the webroot, since by default, Yii expects the assets directory to be located in the same location as the entry script).
That should be all you need to do, but if you need more details I describe the approach more fully here:

How to rewrite URL to include variables and remove php while allowing directories

I have the following htaccess
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/?user=$1
which works as expected for example
http://example.com/index.php?user=USERNAME -> http://example.com/USERNAME
However I have created a form on the page index.php which posts to /directory/save.php
How do I remove .php while allowing for the directory so that I can post to /directory/save/ instead?
if it is going to one and only such file in /directory then probably hard code it by adding following before the above rules?
RewriteRule ^directory/save$ /directory/save.php [L]
directory/ might have it's own rewrite rules and not have a physical save.php, that's why !-f might not work. Try adding a new rewrite condition to stop rewriting for directory/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^directory
Try to check this one if it's rewriting /directory/save.php file to directory /directory/save/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/directory/save\.php$
RewriteRule ^(.+) /directory/save/ [NC]

Tricky .htaccess and Drupal problem

1) I have a Drupal site located at http://example.com and I have a directory located at http://example.com/foo, but I also have a Drupal page with an alias of http://example.com/foo. How can I get the Drupal page to serve? Currently, I get a 403 forbidden page as a result of the Options -Indexes declaration in Drupal's .htaccess file, but I do not want to remove this as I do not want directories to be browsable.
EDIT: I have solved this with the following rule:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://localhost/s2k/index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA]
2) To make the problem even more difficult, given the same scenario, if I have an index.html file inside the directory http://example.com/foo/index.html I always want this to take priority over Drupal's aliased page (which it does at the moment - currently I have modified the .htaccess file so that any directory with an index.html file displays it - DirectoryIndex index.php index.html).
EDIT:
So now, how can I write a RewriteCond that will look to see whether or not there is an index.html file inside the directory?
I am no RewriteRule Guru and pretty sure there is a nicer way to achieve this, e.g. with conditional RewriteCond.
But simply adding
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} =/foo/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA]
Above the default rewrite Conds and rules make this rule kick in for /foo/ and not the Drupal-default one. Where a RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d will only apply the RewriteRule if something is NOT a dir.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}/index.html !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://localhost/s2k/index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}index.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1index.html [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}/index.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1/index.html [L]
[normal Drupal rewrite rules]
