i am trying to implement pretty url.
Everything i have written in PHP and it works properly. I need to handle every request by index.php.
For example website.com/page/search/question/dogs will be handled by index.
BUT website.com/templates/header.tpl will start downloading the file.
I want to handle by index.php even adress to another file.
In .htaccess i have.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^.*$ ./index.php
How can i hande even absolute url to file by index.php?
If you want to rewrite URLs for files that exist on the server already, you need to drop the !-F (not a file) and the !-D (not a directory) check. Otherwise you've setup the wrong RewriteConditions for your RewriteRule.
However, there is one caveat, you don't want to rewrite for index.php itself, otherwise it would result in an endless rewrite-loop.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !=^./index\.php$
RewriteRule ^.*$ ./index.php [L]
See as well RewriteCond DirectiveDocs.
rmove the conditions that the url must not be a directory or a filename:
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f

I am building a clean url system using .htaccess and php.
The main idea is to rewrite everything to index.php and to split the url to segments separated by /.
It works but when I upload it to web server I get an infinite loop error.
My .htaccess file is:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
If I get things correctly - the problem is that it redirects index.php to itself but it shouldn't because I have index.php file that handles everything and RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f which should prevent that rewrite.
Could you please help me with this .htaccess - I want it to rewrite everything to index.php and to be as portable as it can be, so I can use it in:
www.mysite.com
www.myothersite.com
or even
www.mysite.com/new/
I also want to redirect something like www.mysite.com/articles/2 to index.php as well as www.mysite.com/articles/it/2 or even www.mysite.com/articles/it/search/searchterm
Here's code taken from Drupal's .htaccess which uses the "clean urls" approach you are trying to achieve.
# Rewrite URLs of the form 'x' to the form 'index.php?q=x'.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !=/favicon.ico
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA]
In this case, it appends the clean URL as the "q" querystring parameter. So then your script can detect what content to deliver based on $_GET['q'].
And here's another approach, this one from Wordpress.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
This one specifically looks for requests to index.php and filters them out before doing the redirection.
I want all the request to be rewrited to index.php so I used this htaccess code.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
It works fine when site is hosted on home directory. But suppose if I move my site to a subdirectory xyz and move all my files including .htacess file inside this directory. Then if I access http://example.com/xyz/some_page, the request is not redirected to /xyz/index.php.
So, How can I make this rewrite work even on subdirectories as in my case.
Update:
I forgot to mention the directory xyz as in my case is likely to change frequently. So, this directory doesn't need to be hard coded in the rewrite rule
Remove the RewriteBase
If you don't need the rewrite base - just remove it. A working example based on the one shown in the question would be:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
Note that the first rewrite rule has been deleted as it is logically equivalent to RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f (do not rewrite requests for a file that exists).
Consider also deleting RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d as this prevents urls like /this/folder/exists being sent to index.php. Most relevant if Directory listings are enabled but not desired.
change your base url for rewrite
RewriteBase subdir/
or try with full url
RewriteBase http://www.examle.com/subdir/
My question might be dumb, but I googled it and didn't find an answer...
Let's say I want to access my website in this given url: www.mywebsite.com/something/something_else/?some_query_string=true
(I put the query string because it is going to be there, and I don't know if it makes any difference in the htaccess file)
I want it to keep the URL the same, but load the index file for no matter what URL, which is not in the root of the server.
My server has an "application" folder, where all the code is.
How can I do this?
Thanks!
use htaccess to re-write all request to index.php (except for when a file/dir/link is requested and it exists):
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule .* index.php [L]
</IfModule>
If you want to use Rewrite to have your requests handled by a file outside the DocumentRoot, then you can combine with an Alias directive.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule .* application/index.php [PT]
Alias application /path/to/application
Note the [PT] on the RewriteRule which means 'pass through' - it ensures the rewritten url is passed through to other apache modules which might be interesting in processing it.
This turned out to answer my own question:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ application/index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]
If the URL doesn't exist, it loads the index.php file inside of the folder "application", and it keeps the URL the same, which was exactly what I needed...
Thanks for the answers!
I have php that works awesome
But I wanna change it from showing variables to look like dirs
eg:
example.com/?mode=page&page=15 to example.com/page/15
and
example.com/?mode=pic&picid=136 to example.com/pic/136
however I only know of one way to do it, such as:
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?mode=$1&page [R]
but that only works for one case, otherwise it 404s
I tried using RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [L,QSA] so that the whole path gets passed. However, this way it doesn't seem to pass the CSS in my pages.
I'm extremely confused...
Here's my htaccess file
# Do not remove this line, otherwise mod_rewrite rules will stop working
RewriteBase /
IndexIgnore *
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^css/styles\.css$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [L,QSA]
The problem is you are rewriting ALL urls to
index.php?url=
So your CSS files also get "redirected" to "index.php?url=" eg
index.php?url=css/styles.css
So you need to add "conditions" to your .htaccess so that certain files (or directories) dont get "redirected". You can do this by using "RewriteCond" (conditions) before your "RewriteRule ".
For example to not "redirect" the css file "css/styles.css" you could do
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^css/styles\.css$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [L,QSA]
can anybody please tell me the rewrite rule so I can make a URL like this:
http://www.mysite.com/index.php?page=directory1/page
what I'm trying to do is remove the "index.php?page=" so i get a
"http://www.mysite.com/directory1/page"
This is how Drupal does it; it's very similar to toneplex's example, but it doesn't mess around with extension checking and it adds an extra check on favicon.ico, which many browsers automatically request; this saves an extra hit on your PHP code if you're missing favicon.ico.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !=/favicon.ico
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
I'm assuming you are trying to bootstrap everything via the index.php file. So try this out. Any file or directory that doesn't exist will be force through the index.php file.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule !\.(js|ico|gif|jpg|png|css)$ /index.php
