I'd like to make it so when someone does example.com/page.php/query it works as a $_GET (example.com/page.php?q=query) for the query
How would I do this?
Would this be done with the page.php's code or would I do it in .htaccess?
In order to route a request like /test/something to internally rewrite so that the content at /test.php?whatever=something gets served, you would use these rules in the htaccess file in your document root:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^/?test/(.*?)/?$ /test.php?whatever=$1 [L]

The task seems very simple:
all requests must be passed through one file.
However,
when following code is added to httpd.conf:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?route=$1 [QSA,R=301,L]
and following code is added to /index.php:
if( isset($_GET["route"]) && $_GET["route"] != "/index.php" ){
header("Location: ".$_GET["route"]);
}
then it causes redirect loop!
Causes for example such loop:
www.site.com/image.jpg -> (redirected by httpd.conf)
www.site.com/index.php?route=/image.jpg -> (redirected by index.php)
www.site.com/image.jpg -> (redirected by httpd.conf)
www.site.com/index.php?route=/image.jpg -> (redirected by index.php)
...
So, the question is following:
How to stop this loop?
To stop for example in such way:
www.site.com/image.jpg -> (redirected by httpd.conf)
www.site.com/index.php?route=/image.jpg -> (redirected by index.php)
www.site.com/image.jpg (no further redirection)
This one is a bit of patch, but I think it works.
httpd.conf:
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !^(.*)a=a$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php?route=$1 [QSA,L]
index.php:
<?php
if( isset($_GET["route"]) && $_GET["route"] != "/index.php" ){
header("Location: ".$_GET["route"].'?a=a');
}
The thing is: First time the rewrite engine redirects the page to index.php. Then, in index.php there's a redirection to the same file but adding parameter a=a. Then rewrite engine comes again, but he has orders of not redirect when found the string a=a in the query string, and there's no further redirection.
Of course this will end in a 404 error, since you're filtering only non-existant files with the first two rewritecond, but I guess you know how to deal with that.
Your rule looks fine but R=301 is a bit odd in your rule as you don't want to expose your internal URL in browser.
However PHP code is looking suspect due to this condition:
$_GET["route"] != "/index.php"
Which will always be true since /index.php itself will not be routed through this rule due to these conditions:
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
Hence your code will cause a redirect loop by continuously redirecting using header function.
I suggest keep your rule like this:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ /index.php?route=$1 [QSA,L]
And your PHP code should just check presence of $_GET['route'] but should not do any redirects.
First, put this to .htaccess file, not in httpd.conf
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php [QSA,R=301,L]
Then, remove this redirect from your index.php file. You can get all your variables via $_GET or $_REQUEST.
What a senseless solutions. Of course it will cause redirect loop. In the RewriteCond-s you trying to catch files and dirs names that not exists in the server file system, and then you trying to pass their names to the index.php in which you make to request them again, again and again.
There is a single boilerplate that may come in handy, it should be placed on the top, after RewriteEngine on condition:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} !^[\s/]*$
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
An env was added, it works by theory, however I have tested it only once, see if it can solve the issue.
Why are you putting this:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?route=$1 [QSA,R=301,L]
In httpd.conf? You need to place this into file called .htaccess, create it into your root directory.
I'm sorry for this "bad" title, I'll try to explain it:
My .htaccess looks like this:
Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /mythbusters/tsp/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
# RewriteRule ^album/(.+)$ index.php?url=album/show/$1
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]
The last line of this file is working perfectly. It allows to rewrite my URL from _ROOT_/index.php?url=album/index to _ROOT_/album/index (I'm using this to work with those parameters and to create beautiful URL's.
Although, there's one exception I want to make:
The out-commented line in my .htaccess file is one of my uncountable tries to rewrite a specific URL.
With the last line of my .htaccess file, the working URL looks like this:
_ROOT_/album/show/name_of_album
which is the same as
_ROOT_/index.php?url=album/show/name_of_album
Now, I want to remove the "show" part of this URL, I tried to to it with
# RewriteRule ^album/(.+)$ index.php?url=album/show/$1
But using this, every other path in my site changes which causes the CSS files fail loading (just pure HTML, no styles).
Are there some missing flags or even some wrong regex in this file?
Thanks for your help.

Have it like this:
Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /mythbusters/tsp/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -l
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
RewriteRule ^album/(.+)$ index.php?url=album/show/$1 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]
For css/js/image issue: use absolute path in your css, js, images files rather than a relative one. Which means you have to make sure path of these files start either with http:// or a slash /.
You can also try adding this in your page's HTML header: <base href="/" />
So to begin with I have a custom url rewrite that sends a request variable to a php script
Rewrite rule is below:
RewriteRule ^([\w\/-]+)(\?.*)?$ test/index.php?slug=$1 [L,T=application/x-httpd-php]
So if you access something like domain.com/slug-text it sends slug-text to index.php located in folder named test.
What I want is all my urls to look like domain.com/slug-text.html, but slug-test variable should still be sent to index.php file.
And
What I can't figure out is the redirect. I want all the old urls to be redirected from domain.com/slug-text or domain.com/slug-text/ to domain.com/slug-text.html and slug-text sent to index.php file located in test folder.
Searched a lot but could not find the answer for this question anywhere on the Internet.
Thank you all for the help.
UPDATE:
my new code is:
RewriteEngine On
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule ^(([\w/\-]+)?[\w-])(?!:\.html)$ http://domain.com/$1\.html [L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^(([\w/\-]+)?[\w-])(/|\.html)?$ test/index.php?slug=$1 [L]
domain.com/slug-text/ does not get redirected to domain.com/slug-text.html
domain.com/slug-text works as intended redirecting to domain.com/slug-text.html
What do i need to change?
This rule:
RewriteRule ^(([\w/\-]+)?[\w-])(/|\.html)?$ test/index.php?slug=$1 [L]
Will trap domain.com/slug-text, domain.com/slug-text/ and domain.com/slug-text.html and send slug-text to /test/index.php inside slug param.
If you really want to redirect using [R=301] from old urls to new then use this:
RewriteRule ^(([\w/-]+)?[\w-])/?(?!:\.html)$ http://domain.com/$1.html [L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^(([\w/-]+)?[\w-])\.html$ test/index.php?slug=$1 [L]
Also note that as using explicit redirect bottom rule is modified to trap url's ending with .html
It is also advisable (if your .htaccess does not already contain this) to filter conditions for existing files and folders not to be trapped by your redirect rules. Simply add these lines before RewriteRule lines:
# existing file
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
# existing folder
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
And if using symlinks:
# enable symlinks
Options +FollowSymLinks
# existing symlink
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-l
// addition
Your .htaccess file should look like this:
RewriteEngine on
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule ^(([\w/-]+)?[\w-])/?(?!:\.html)$ http://domain.com/$1.html [L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^(([\w/-]+)?[\w-])\.html$ test/index.php?slug=$1 [L]
This is supposed to redirect /slug-text to /slug-text.html
RedirectMatch ^/([\w-]+)/?$ http://domein.com/$1.html
This is in the case when slug-text is only letters, digits, – and _.
Rewrite slug-text.html to a php file and pass the slug as a param:
RewriteRule ^([\w-]+)\.html$ test/index.php?slug=$1 [R,L]
If you have both line in your .htaccess the first one will do the redirects from the legacy URLs to the new ones and the second one will process the request.
I have the following htaccess
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ 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]
I currently have a .htaccess file that allows people to enter the URL without the php extension, such that http://domain.com/account redirects to account.php
I would like to be able to have it so that if I enter http://domain.com/account/contactinfo (or http://domain.com/account/settings/groups and so on) it still goes to account.php, but I am not sure how to change what I have to achieve this.
Current .htaccess :
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^(([A-Za-z0-9\-_\.]+/)*[A-Za-z0-9\-_\.]+)?$ $1.php
Any help appreciated! Obviously if there exists a folder it should follow that path (e.g. if /folder/page.php exists, then http://domain.com/folder/page/create would go to folder/page.php)
Try this is you don't need to pass any URI info into query string (i.e. your app will still look at $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'])
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([A-Za-z0-9\-_\.]+)(/[A-Za-z0-9\-_\.]*)?$ $1.php&q=$2 [QSA]
# Note the optional '&q=$2' on line above if you want to make removed part of URI available as passed parameter
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^.*$ / [L,QSA]
Note that since I removed the condition to check for a valid php file, I added a second conditional rewrite rule to just redirect to site root if the re-written request does not point to a valid PHP file. You could obviously redirect this to a 404 page or whatever else you might want to redirect to. Or you could remove this altogether and let Apache give it's default 404 response.
