Rewrite *all* non-file requests to index.php with htaccess - php

I'm basically trying to have everything that's not a file (.css, .js, .jpg, etc...) rewrite to index.php to create sym-links. The code I have in my .htaccess file works for my root directory and for a single subdirectory So. "localhost/" and "localhost/help" both work, but "localhost/help/article-27" does not work. The .htaccess seems to rewrite everything when I try to use that second sub-directory, including JS and CSS files. Does anyone know why that is? Here's my code:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond $1 !\.(gif|jpe?g|png)$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php [L]
</IfModule>

As darren mentioned as per the comments it's not required to have $1 !!.(gif|jpe?g|png)$ [NC]
This will work for all the levels and CSS files whether symlink / direct links.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php [L]
</IfModule>

.htaccess help within root and public

I have a small mvc application where I'm trying to force the url to go from www.example.com to www.example.com/public.
In order to do this, I have a .htaccess file in the root (/) and then another .htaccess within the /public folder to point to index.php with friendly urls. I believe the issue is within the htaccess file that sits in the public folder, I need all requests to go through index.php
I have tried a few threads on stackoverflow but seems to give me a server 500 error when I access www.example.com
.htaccess of root
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /public/
</IfModule>
.htaccess of public folder
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}% !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}% !-d
#allow images, css and js links
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.(css|js|jpe?g|gif|png)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [PT,L]
</IfModule>
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/index.php
RewriteRule (.*) /public/index.php

htaccess forward all users to a single file

Good day,
I am using a framework that uses a .htaccess file to forward all requests to a sub file core/index.php
I used the following .htaccess file code :
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^$ core/ [L]
# If the request is not for a valid directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
# If the request is not for a valid file
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule (.*) core/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
This worked great I thought until I noticed that the pages got loaded multiple times.
And this is what I want to prevent.
So I had a little look at this forum.
And I found a solution that the space between (.*) and core could be the reason.
Hence I removed it.
And to my delight the multiple db inserts stopped.
However now I have found that my requests do not get forwarded correctly.
Only the main request (www.myapplication.com/) gets forwarded correctly (index.php)
Whenever I am adding something like : (www.myapplication.com/admin) he bugs out and cannot find the page.
I hope anyone could tell me what to modify in this code :
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^$ core/ [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule (.*) core/$1 [L]
Thanks in advance!!
I also note that whenever I change the (.) core/$1 [L] line to (.)core/$1 [L] that not only my (sub)pages stopped working but for the index.php the load times of my index.php file where split in half.
Hence my page truly gets reloaded multiple times.
Edit
As pointed out by a question below the system also uses a .htaccess file inside the /core directory.
This file has the following contents
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
# Rewrite all other URLs to index.php/URL
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [PT,L]
</IfModule>
<IfModule !mod_rewrite.c>
ErrorDocument 404 index.php
</IfModule>
Edit
I think it would come handy to make a small summary. If requested for a file or path I want the server to check if it is
available on the server.
www.myapplication.com/flower.jpeg and the server can find it it should display the flower.jpeg file.
If the server CAN NOT find the flower.jpeg file I want the server to forward the request to /core/index.php?url=flower.jpeg
I am using two .htaccess files
in the **public directory** (main directory)
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^$ core/ [L]
# If the request is not for a valid directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
# If the request is not for a valid file
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule (.*) core/$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !core/
</IfModule>
Second file in the core directory
core/
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
# Rewrite all other URLs to index.php/URL
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [PT,L]
</IfModule>
<IfModule !mod_rewrite.c>
ErrorDocument 404 index.php
</IfModule>
The issue: my pages are in a loop hence the page index.php get's executed with every server request. E.G. 10 images on a page means 10
requests extra. Same for js and CSS files.
edit:
Solved!!!
This is the solution!!
DirectoryIndex core/index.php
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ core/index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]
</IfModule>
You have to add
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !core/
to the RewriteCond block to prevent redirection from the target to the target.
It would be better if your target would be more specific, for example if you could specify /core/ instead of core/ (do you have a core subfolder in every folder?). Also, you will have to exclude image folders.
Try this in /core/.htaccess:
ErrorDocument 404 default
DirectoryIndex index.php
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^.]+)/?$ index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]
I found a solution. The working code is :
DirectoryIndex core/index.php
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ core/index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]
</IfModule>

can another .htaccess file can work in subfolder

I have a codeigniter site http://piyukarts.in/mss/ where in .htaccess file under mss contains
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
# Send request via index.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
but i cant access a link http://piyukarts.in/mss/posts, but i can access piyukarts.in/mss/index.php/posts, with this index.php/ after mss/
piyukarts.in/ is wordpress site, also having a .htaccess file
Please help.. thanks a ton in advance...
I made this change in .htaccess file and its working fine now.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /mss
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|robots\.txt|css|docs|js|system)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /mss/index.php?/$1 [L]
To answer:
can another .htaccess file can work in subfolder
is:
Yes.
.htaccess files in any folder in the file path tree to the file, will be applied to the file.
so file as /root/home/site/includes/css/horses.css the htaccess in any of those folders would be applied to the file horses.css .

Htaccess redirect all requests to index (does not allow images) Wamp Server

Please I need a help. I am working on a site and wants to redirect all requests to an index file while allowing access to images, css, javascripts and other documents that are not php scripts. I am working on a local server (WAMP). The problem I have is that it redirects all requests to the index file including images. Below is my htaccess rule.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /myapp
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(\d{4})/(0?[1-9]|1[0-2])/([^/]+)/?$ app/$1-$2/$3 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php [L]
</IfModule>
Is this not what you're aiming for?
RewriteRule ^(.*\.php)$ index.php [L]
You should also escape those slashes in your first rewrite rule
Thanks I have figured it out, I just modified the moved the first rewrite rule above the rewrite condition and it now working fine.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /myapp
RewriteRule ^(\d{4})/(0?[1-9]|1[0-2])/([^/]+)/?$ app/$1-$2/$3 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php [L]
</IfModule>

.htaccess in subfolder

The main site runs WordPress with .htaccess
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
I'm going to create an CodeIgniter app in subdirectory site.com/online/
If simply add CI .hta file in subfolder it wouldn't work. CI .htaccess:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|robots\.txt|img|styles|js)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]
Is it possible to combine two .htaccess files or to do something with .htaccess in CI subfolder?
Thank you.
UPD.
Thank you for answers, I've tried all variants, and eventually moved project to subdomain.
First thing, your .htaccess should be like this:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} !^GET\s/+online/ [NC]
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
#Then add this for CI handling in the same .htaccess
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond $1 !index\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^online/(.*)$ online/index.php?/$1 [L,NC]
Then you can remove (or rename) .htaccess in the online subfolder.
Try this for the codeigniter .htaccess:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /online
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|robots\.txt|img|styles|js)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]
Otherwise all requests to that subfolder would be redirected down to wordpress.
Are you setting AllowOverride? According to the docs you need to allow FileInfo overrides for mod_rewrite.
