I went through a bunch of websites and tutorials yet can't find a solution.
Following snippet works and http://example.com/page/pot return a pot.php content
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^page/([^/]*)$ $1.php?page=$1 [L]
I can't get it to work the other way around
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)/page$ $1.php?page=$1 [L]
Your current approach will cause infinite looping since Apache re-injects rewritten URI back for further rule processing.
You need to use THE_REQUEST variable for that like this:
RewriteEngine On
# external redirect from actual URL to pretty one
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s/+page/[^.]+\.php\?page=([^\s&]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ page/%1? [R=302,L]
# internal forward from pretty URL to actual one
RewriteRule ^page/([^/]*)/?$ $1.php?page=$1 [L,QSA,NC]
Try to use:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/page$ $1.php?page=$1 [L]

I want to create pretty url. But, I got some problem with .htaccess. For example I have url domain/some.php?f=query-string.
I want to change domain/query-string (expected url). Is that possible to change / redirect via .htaccess. Or maybe from php file itsself.
this is a bit of htaccess snippet i made, but i get it blank/error page
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%1/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^/([^/.]+)$ some.php?f=$1 [NC,L]
</IfModule>
Thanks for your attention.
RewriteRule ^/([^/.]+)$ some.php?f=$1 [NC,L]
In .htaccess, the URL-path matched by the RewriteRule pattern does not start with a slash, so the above will never match and it will do nothing. This should be written like the following instead:
RewriteRule ^([^/.]+)$ some.php?f=$1 [L]
The NC flag is not required here, since the regex is already "case-insensitive".
I've two types of URLs:
http://www.example.com/?content=contact_form.php
and
http://www.example.com/?content=product.php&id=20
I changed my whole URL system like this:
http://www.example.com/file/contact_form
and
http://www.example.com/product/I-m-the-title/20
Of course I made 301 redirect with .htaccess to tell Google and co. the new URL.
I made it like this:
# Rewrite URLs
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(ignore)($|/) - [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]
hi i have use many different htaccess codes, but i cant get rewrite to work.
i want this url
https://domain.com/category.php?cat=firm
to look like this url
https://domain.com/category/firm
this is my latest attempt
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)\.html$ /category.php?cat=$1 [L]
ErrorDocument 404 https://seoboost.no/404page.php
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.seoboost\.no$
RewriteRule ^/?$ "https\:\/\/seoboost\.no\/" [R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.example\.com$
RewriteRule ^/?$ "https\:\/\/example\.com\/" [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} libwww-perl.*
RewriteRule .* ? [F]
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ / [R=301]
RewriteRule ^(.*)/index\.php$ /$1/ [R=301]
i have try to delete all in my htaccess and only have this code
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)\.html$ /category.php?cat=$1 [L]
but it still not working, is my server or what am i doing wrong??
Try replacing your .htaccess with
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^category/(.*)$ /category.php?cat=$1 [L]
which will redirect yoursite.com/category/12 to yoursite.com/category.php?cat=12 internally, and the user will never see the "ugly" url. Then inside your category.php file you can access the cat by $category_id = $_GET['cat']
A simple anchor tag looks like this:
Item 12
Pulling from Justin Lurman's answer here, the following should work:
RewriteEngine On
# redirect "/category.php?cat=..." to "/category/..." to hide a directly accessed "ugly" url
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/category\.php\?cat=(.+)\s [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /category/%1? [R=301,L]
# internally rewrite "/category/..." to "/category.php?cat=..."
RewriteRule ^category/(.+)$ /category.php?id=$1 [L]
As Justin noted in that answer to a similar question, you need to confirm that htaccess files are enabled/allowed in your Apache configuration and that mod_rewrite is enabled.
Additionally, I am sure you are aware, but just in case you are not, after implementing this new htaccess redirect rule, you should change all of the links on your webpages to use clean/friendly URLs. By doing so, neither your users nor a search engine crawler will access the "ugly" URLs unless they access them directly (via a bookmark or a saved link).
I have a slight problem.
I have a site that uses these formats for viewing certain PHP documents:
domainname.com/server.php?id=14
domainname.com/changeserver.php?id=14
domainname.com/customize.php?id=14
I would like to make these:
domainname.com/server/14
domainname.com/changeserver/14
domainname.com/customize/14
I also have various URLs such as /index.php and /login.php I would like to clean up.
If someone were to type the original URL, such as /server.php?id=14, I would like it to redirect to it's clean URL.
If anyone can provide me with a config or help me along the way to making one that can do this, it would be greatly appreciated.
To prevent an infinite loop while externally redirecting the ugly url to the clean url and internally rewriting it back to the ugly url, you can use the THE_REQUEST trick.
#External redirect
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^(GET|POST)\ /(server|changeserver|customize)\.php\?id=([^&]+)\ HTTP
RewriteRule ^ /%2/%3? [R,L]
#Change above to [R=301,L] once all rules work as expected
#Internal rewrite
RewriteRule ^(server|changeserver|customize)/(.*)$ /$1?id=$2 [L]
You need to rewrite your URLs in .htaccess file.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^server/(.*)$ server.php?id=$1 [R=301,L]
here is a good guide on URL rewriting
http://www.addedbytes.com/articles/for-beginners/url-rewriting-for-beginners/
In this case you have to use a 301 Redirect of URLS. Here is an example:
Redirect
www.example.com/a1/articles.php?id=1&name=abc
to
www.example.com/article/1/abc
For this you have to modify the .htaccess file with the following:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^id=(.*)&name=(.*)$
RewriteRule ^articles\.php$ /article/%1/%2? [R=301]
RewriteRule ^article/([^-]+)/([^-]+)$ /articles.php?article_id=$1&article_name=$2 [L]
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^server/([A-Za-z0-9-_,()'+]+)?$ server.php?id=$1
RewriteRule ^changeserver/([A-Za-z0-9-_,()'+]+)?$ changeserver.php?id=$1
RewriteRule ^customize/([A-Za-z0-9-_,()'+]+)?$ customize.php?id=$1
To adapt to your code. Here is the answer.
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^id=(.*)$
RewriteRule ^server\.php$ /server/%1? [R=301]
RewriteRule ^server/([^-]+)$ /server.php?id=$1 [L]
Check the Above code. I think this will help you.
In my infinity stupidity I changed the permalinks on my wordpress blog a little while back and have now changed them again. The problem that I have now caused is that I have a few hundred URL's out there which no longer work.
For example this URL looks like the ones that used to work
http://www.lazygamer.net/the-evopoints-co-za-downloads-of-the-week-1305/
But you'll see that just gives you a 404 not found page now because my site expects the first subdirectory to be a category such as
http://www.lazygamer.net/xbox-360/the-evopoints-co-za-downloads-of-the-week-1305/
So now I want to put a htaccess rule in that checks to see if a category exists and if it doesn't then just add in something random to make the url resolve.
I'm pretty sure I can do this with a regular expression of sorts but I can't figure it out.
[Update] My current .htaccess file
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^/([^/]+)/$ /category/$1/ [R]
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.lazygamer\.co.za$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.lazygamer.net/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^lazygamer\.co.za$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.lazygamer.net/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^lazygamer\.net$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.lazygamer.net/$1 [R=301,L]
Read up mod_rewrite to understand how to use these for other problems!
RewriteRule ^/([^/]+)/$ /category/$1/ [R]
That should do it.
Beware, this will redirect anything with one directory path in the URL to /category/{original_url_path}
