.htaccess url rewrite not formatting properly - php

Currently I working through my localhost in MAMP. I have read and research for the proper way to allow .htaccess file url rewrite and was successful. But now, the file is not formatting the links at all as desired. For example I have three pages index.php, about.php and contact. I am using MVC for the frame working of my site. Is this a problem with the code in the .htaccess file or my localserver?
Currently links look like this when going from one page to another:
localhost/mvc/index.php?
localhost/mvc/index.php?p=about
localhost/mvc/index.php?p=contact
.htaccess should format the links to look like this:
localhost/mvc/index/?
localhost/mvc/about/?
localhost/mvc/contact/?
.htaccess:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
# Turn on the engine:
RewriteEngine on
# Set the base to this directory:
RewriteBase /mvc/
# Redirect certain paths to index.php:
RewriteRule ^(about|contact|this|that|search)/?$ index.php?p=$1
</IfModule>

Replace your existing .htaccess code fully with this code:
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
DirectoryIndex index.php index.html
# Turn mod_rewrite on
RewriteEngine On
# Set the base to this directory:
RewriteBase /mvc/
# Redirect /mvc/index.php?p=page to /mvc/page
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s/+mvc/index\.php\?p=([^\s]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1/? [R=302,L]
# Redirect /mvc/index.php to /mvc/
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s/+mvc/index\.php\s [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /mvc/ [R=302,L]
# Internally forward certain /mvc/page/ to /mvc/index.php?p=page
RewriteRule ^(about|contact|this|that|search)/?$ /mvc/index.php?p=$1 [L,QSA,NC]

Replace
RewriteRule ^(about|contact|this|that|search)/?$ index.php?p=$1
with :
RewriteRule ^(about|contact|this|that|search)/\?$ index.php?p=$1
I just escaped the ? with a slash because, otherwise, you don't do this, the question mark will be interpreted and will means that the slash before it is optinal.

URL Rewriting (Internal/External Forwarders) .htaccess

I am using .htaccess for URL Rewriting. My current .htaccess code is:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
# external redirect from actual URL to pretty one
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/+fr/transporter/transporterPublicProfile\.php\?profil=([^\s&]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ fr/profil-des-transporteurs/%1? [R=302,L,NE]
# internal forward from pretty URL to actual one
RewriteRule ^fr/profil-des-transporteurs/([^/.]+)/?$ fr/transporter/transporterPublicProfile.php?profil=$1 [L,QSA,NC]
My URL is :
https://example.com/fr/profil-des-transporteurs/1927
It works fine when I place .htaccess file in DOCUMENT_ROOT directory.
But it doesnot work when I put same .htaccess file in real sub-directory i.e /fr/.
So what should I do, if I want to place .htaccess file in sub-directory i.e /fr/
Use these rules inside /fr/.htaccess:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /fr/
# external redirect from actual URL to pretty one
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /fr/transporter/transporterPublicProfile\.php\?profil=([^\s&]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ profil-des-transporteurs/%1? [R=302,L,NE]
# internal forward from pretty URL to actual one
RewriteRule ^profil-des-transporteurs/([^/.]+)/?$ transporter/transporterPublicProfile.php?profil=$1 [L,QSA,NC]
Try this
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /fr

RewriteRule for all .php pages with constant querystring

I'm working on a project which all pages need to have a querystring assumed id. for example following pages:
example.com/alfa.php?id=1
example.com/beta.php?id=30
exapmle.com/gamma.php?id=50
I'm using the following .htaccess to make my URLs beautiful.
RewriteEngine On
## BEAUTIFUL URL
DirectoryIndex default.php
Options -Multiviews -Indexes +FollowSymLinks
#RewriteBase /
DirectorySlash off
# remove trailing slash
RewriteRule ^(.*)\/(\?.*)?$ $1$2 [R=301,L]
# rewrite /dir/file?query to /dir/file.php?query
RewriteRule ^([\w\/-]+)(\?.*)?$ $1.php$2 [L,T=application/x-httpd-php]
This code will make the following convertion:
example.com/alfa.php?id=1 to example.com/alfa?id=1
Assuming that X.php is everytime changing (X) but id is always constant, What is the best content of .htaccess file?
I tried several methods, But what is the best?
and one thing more, How can I convert URL into example.com/alfa/1 AND example.com/beta/30
You're trying to match against the query string (all the stuff after ?) in the regex pattern of your rule. The query string isn't part of that match, only the URI. But since you don't want the query string to be touched, just don't match against it since it'll get appended automatically:
RewriteEngine On
## BEAUTIFUL URL
DirectoryIndex default.php
Options -Multiviews -Indexes +FollowSymLinks
#RewriteBase /
DirectorySlash off
# remove trailing slash
RewriteRule ^(.*)\/$ $1 [R=301,L]
# rewrite /dir/file?query to /dir/file.php?query
RewriteRule ^([\w/-]+)$ $1.php [L,T=application/x-httpd-php]
For example.com/alfa/1 and example.com/beta/30:
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} [A-Z]{3,9}\ /([\w/-]+)(\.php)?\?id=([0-9]+)
RewriteRule ^ /%1/%3 [L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^([\w/-]+?)/([0-9]+)$ $1.php?id=$2 [L,QSA,T=application/x-httpd-php]
Something else you can try doing is getting rid of your rules and just using Multiviews, which you have turned off. Multiviews and mod_negotiation was made for stuff like this.

url rewrites removing folders .htaccess

I want to remove 'articles' and 'artificial' folders from a site's urls, but when I try to introduce rewrite rules into .htaccess file I am receiving errors.
http://www.example.com/articles/artificial/are_string_beans_all_right_on_the_candida_diet.php
trying to convert
http://www.example.com/are_string_beans_all_right_on_the_candida_diet.php
here is the current version of my .htaccess file
DirectoryIndex index.php
AddDefaultCharset utf-8
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^[^.]+\.[^.]+$
RewriteCond %{HTTPS}s ^on(s)|
RewriteRule ^ http%1://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
# Turn mod_rewrite on
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php/?$ / [L,R=301,NC]
RewriteRule ^((?!articles/artificial).*)$ articles/artificial/$1 [NC,L]
The problem should be on the last rule: what you need is a negative look behind ie anything not preceede with articles/artificial
The regex should be:
((?<!(articles/artificial)).*)
But this probabilly does not work since the .* is variable length (see regex look arrounds)
A solution could be replacing the negative look behind with a positive look ahead that allows for variable length. So your rule could be:
RewriteRule ^(?!.*?articles/artificial.*?)(.*)$ /articles/artificial/$1

Enable mod_rewrite and .htaccess through httpd.conf and then put this code in your .htaccess under DOCUMENT_ROOT directory:
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
# Turn mod_rewrite on
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
# external redirect from /view.php?id=1 to /view/id/1
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s/+([^.]+)\.php\?([^=]+)=([^\s&]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1/%2/%3? [L,R=301]
# internal forward from /view/id/1 to /view.php?id=1
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?$ /$1.php?$2=$3 [L,QSA]

how to rewrite a url with two variables using .htaccess

i want rewrite it with a .htaccess i have this url:
../index.php?page=details&id=123456
like this:
../detail/123456
but I do not really know how to do this. Could you help me to rewrite this url?
or give me a simple example that I can understand how it works
RewriteRule ^(.*)/([0-9]+)$ index.php?page=$1&id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING}
The first (.*) selects any string, e.g. "details". ([0-9]+) catches a number, in your case "123456"
Finally
&%{QUERY_STRING}
ensures, that additional parameters are added to your backendscript, too.
This should work:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^detail/([^/]*)$ /index.php?page=details&id=$1 [L]
Here is an example I use for my webpage when it's in a subdirectory.
# "learn/degree/index.php?d=mathematics" shows as "learn/degree/mathematics"
RewriteRule ^learn/degree/([a-zA-Z_-]+)$ learn/degree/index.php?d=$1
To complete it, remember to write at the beginning of the page this:
RewriteBase /
RewriteEngine On
Here's the 'full' .htaccess I use in my page to give you some idea.
#Redirect any www. to the page without it. Helps to keep user logged.
RewriteBase /
RewriteEngine On
rewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.newfutureuniversity.org [NC]
rewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://newfutureuniversity.org/$1 [R=301,L]
Options +Indexes
Options +FollowSymlinks
# Finally working. Rewrite the user so "/student/Username" will internally be "/student/?user=Username"
RewriteRule ^student/([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$ student/index.php?user=$1
# Rewrite the disciplines so "learn/degree/1" will internally be "learn/degree/index.php?dis=1"
RewriteRule ^learn/degree/([1-4])$ learn/degree/index.php?dis=$1
# Rewrite the degrees so "learn/degree/mathematics" will internally be "learn/degree/index.php?d=mathematics"
RewriteRule ^learn/degree/([a-zA-Z_-]+)$ learn/degree/index.php?d=$1
# Rewrite the degrees so "learn/subject/2/5/7" will internally be "learn/subject/index.php?class=2&div=5&section=7"
RewriteRule ^learn/subject/([0-9])$ learn/subject/index.php?class=$1
RewriteRule ^learn/subject/([0-9])/([0-9])$ learn/subject/index.php?class=$1&div=$2
RewriteRule ^learn/subject/([0-9])/([0-9])/([0-9])$ learn/subject/index.php?class=$1&div=$2&section=$3
You have to make the links to ../detail/123456, then the script interpretes it internally as ../index.php?page=details&id=123456. If you don't want this, then you are looking for a redirect.
Try this
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
Options +FollowSymlinks
# RewriteBase / add this if necessery, commented intentionally
RewriteRule ^detail/([0-9]+)$ index.php?page=details&id=$2
</IfModule>
