I need to, when a person comes to mysite.com/index.html -> refirect to mysite.com/index.php or
mysite.com/index.phtml -> mysite.com/index.php. or
mysite.com/index.sdsf -> mysite.com/index.php. or
mysite.com/about.phtml -> mysite.com/about.php.
If you want to catch incorrect filenames, then that's something you have to do outside of PHP. Try a mod_rewrite rule like:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^index\.(?!php)\w+$ index.php [L,R]
You want all incoming requests to direct to /index.php using PHP?
You could try...
if ( ! preg_match('/\/^index\.php/', $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'])) {
location('Header: /index.php');
exit;
}
Note, you should use the full URL in the redirect.
Otherwise, if you wanted to select those ones you mention exclusively, you could build an array of them, and then loop and check.
Why do you need to redirect it? Why not just use index.php as your default page?
Anyway, a good way to do this would be by use of header
header('Location: http://mysite.com/index.php');
Hope that helps.

I want:
sub.domain.com to load index.php
sub.domain.com?s=custom to load /custom/index.php
I'm doing this right now:
In .htaccess:
RewriteRule ^(custom)/?$ index.php?subject=$1
and in index.php I have this:
if($_GET['s'] == 'custom') {
header( 'Location: http://sub.domain.com/custom/index.php' ) ;
}
... but is it possible to do the redirect via htaccess itself depending on the GET variable?
Thanks!
Yes, you could check query string with RewriteCond
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} s=custom
RewriteRule ^(.*?)$ custom/index.php [L]
With this, it redirects all requests with existing "custom" get parameter to index.php, and this can be extended :)
Idea: http://statichtml.com/2010/mod-rewrite-baseon-on-query-string.html
You probably want to use "RedirectMatch"
RedirectMatch ^sub.domain.com?s=custom$ /custom/index.php
Maybe youll need to play with the regex abit
So basically I want users to be able to go to my website with a URL of something like /45678, instead of having to use /?p=45678, so really I just want to remove the variable name. I've tried using mod_rewrite, but it seems that is only for removing the name when the page is visited.
Here is the current code:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^p=([0-9]+=$
RewriteRule ^/$ /%1 [R]
Simply change all of your links to /45678 rather than ?p=45678. Or did I misunderstand you completely? Because what I got from your post is that it works properly, unless you manually access the ?p=45678 where as it stays as ?p=45678.
EDIT:
This is what I am using for http://www.madphp.org/dev/, give it a go, works like a charm for me (it also removes the index.php part). To access your now cleaner URL you would simply explode the $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'] variable to get all of the required parameters within your PHP script.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
Have you set up mod_rewrite correctly? If so, you can use variables like simple $_GET variables, in this case you must access $_GET['p'] in PHP.
I did this without using .htaccess, but it does query a database. I wrote this a while ago so it uses PEAR DB, adjust to your database/connection method. I'll just copy my code and let you figure out what changes you need.
$db=connect_db();
$name=substr($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'], 20);
$name=strtolower($name);
$id=$db->getone("select id from user where login='{$name}'");
header("Location: /dragonart/profile?user=" . $id);
If you store your information in a database this may be a nice alternative. The downside is that the the URL is not rewritten and the user is ultimately sent to a page with ending in a $_GET variable.
edit:
Just realized that using my method a simpler method can be used for the answer. Since my solution was used to find the id of a user using their username and then send someone to their profile (which requires the id) a better solution would be something like:
$var=substr($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'], $length);
header("Location: /path/to/page?p=".$var);
where $length is the usual length of the URL without the variable at the end.
ok assume i have php page
has this name name.php?get= and has get varible named get
ok
how i can make it appear like that name?get=
If you are using apache, mod_rewrite is one way to go. There is a whole bunch of mod_rewrite tricks here.
I'd seriously reconsider before using (or overusing) mod_rewrite.
In almost all of my projects I use a simple mod rewrite in the .htaccess:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^.*$ ./
AddHandler php5-script .php
This tells the server to forward all pages to / (index.php) unless a file otherwise exists.
In the root directory I have a folder called "views" with all of the pages that I use. E.g. the file used for /home would actually be /views/home.php. However, in the index.php I have a script that parses the user's url, checks for the file, and includes that.
$page = substr($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], 1);
if(!$page) :
header("Location: /home");
if(file_exists("views/$page.php")) :
include "views/$page.php";
else :
include "views/$page.php";
endif;
This creates a variable called $page that stores the value of everything in the URL after the domain name. I use a substr() function on the Request URI to get rid of the trailing forward slash (/) on the URL.
If the variable is empty, for example if the user is simply at http://example.com or http://example.com/ then it forwards them to /home, where the script then checks for the home.php file inside of the views folder. If that file exists, it includes it, and displays it to the user.
Else, the script will simply include the 404 page telling the user that the file doesn't exist.
Hopefully this helps you, and if you need any further explanation I'd be happy to help!
I think you're wanting to re-write the URL client-side, which would include mod_rewrite.
In the route of your website, create a file called .htaccess and place the following code in it:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^name?get=(.*) /name.php?get=$1
Now when you type http://www.example.com/name?get=something, it will actually map to http://www.example.com/name.php?get=something transparently for you.
As far as i could understand your question, you can not strip the file extension because otherwise it will not run. In other words, you can not change:
name.php?get=
into
name?get=
But if you mean to create links with query string values that you can put them in hyperlinks in this way:
Click here !!
If you're looking to create links using a variable '$get', then you can create the link like this:
<a href="name.php?get=$get>Link</a>
Or if you want to get the value of the query string variable, you can use this:
$get = $_GET['get']
Hello I want to have some redirection made by .htaccess file:
Some examples
mysite.com/accepted -> mysite.com/index.php?type=accepted
mysite.com/waiting -> mysite.com/index.php?type=waiting
mysite.com/cancelled -> mysite.com/index.php?type=cancelled
&
mysite.com/edit/2 - > mysite.com/admin.php?edit=2
ETC. for all numbers possible
mysite.com/login -> mysite.com/admin.php?action=login
mysite.com/register -> mysite.com/admin.php?action=register
mysite.com/lostpassword - > mysite.com/admin.php?action=lostpassword
mysite.com/add - > mysite.com/add.php
Apprectiate your help ;)
#edit: It should be done that way but with masking urls.
Which way around is the redirect? It would be common to see redirects from your given right-hand-sides to the left-hand-sides, but not the other way around.
EDIT I see you've fixed that, so my supposition was correct:
i.e. you'd normally see:
RewriteRule ^edit/([0-9]+)$ /admin.php?edit=$1 [L]
etc, to map the nice friendly RESTful style URL into the internal URL.
If you want to get into the topic yourself, www.modrewrite.com hosts a number of great mod_rewrite resources with lots of examples.
If I understand your edit correctly you want this
<?php
header('Location: http://mysite.com/'.$_GET['type']);
?>
Since there is no structural pattern in your URLs that can be used to map the URLs to the destinations, you probably will need to use one rule for each group like these:
RewriteRule ^add$ add.php [L]
RewriteRule ^(login|register|lostpassword)$ admin.php?action=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^edit/(\d+)$ admin.php?edit=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^(accept|waiting|canceled)$ index.php?type=$1 [L]
Maybe something like the following?
RewriteRule ^www.domain.com/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/([^/]+) /index.php?$1=$2&$3=$4 [NC]
Do note that you will have to parse the URL (REQUEST_URI) instead of accessing $_GET
In my .htaccess file I have defined the following rule to make my register page URL as http://example.com/register/
RewriteRule register/ /register.php
The above rule is perfectly fine but I can access my register page from http://example.com/register/ as well as from http://example.com/register.php.
I don't want that user will be able to access the URL from http://example.com/register.php URL, is there any RULE which I can define in .htaccess to stop execution of register.php URL or simply redirect any direct register.php request to /register/
If you are doing this to avoid getting multiple links to the same content, you can simply don't use "register.php" anywhere on your page. I think no search engine will "guess" for a certain file type and if there are no security concerns you are on the safe side, because in my opinion no user will link to this file either. However if you want to be certain just reroute all your functionality through an index.php via one line in your .htaccess which should be placed inside your www-root directory:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(.*?)$ index.php?file=$1
In your index.php you can then simply choose which function/file to invoke by breaking down and checking the $_GET["file"] parameter. To make 100% certain no one can access your register.php file directly just move it (and all your others) to a separate directory and include a .htaccess file with the following line:
DENY from all
There are a couple of other options to prevent direct access. Just define() a variable somewhere in your index.php and at the top of your register.php just put
defined('access') or die('Intruder alert!');
at the top. Another way could be to be honest and simply tell search engines that your content has been moved and that they no longer should use the old link:
header("Status: 301"); /* Content moved permanently */
header("Location: http://yourserver/Register/");
exit;
Update
Just one more thing that crossed my mind, you can also check $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"], whether the user attached any ".php" and act accordingly by either denying access completely or just redirecting to the new location.
It is true that you cannot use location directive, but you can actually paste .htaccess file into any directory.
Just if you put this into it, say:
Options -Indexes
order allow,deny
deny from all
you can copy paste this file into any (root) directory you want to protect from external execution.
To check the initial requested URL path, you need to use the request line. So try this rule:
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^GET\ /[^?\s]+\.php[/?\s]
RewriteRule (.+)\.php$ /$1 [L,R=301]
And then again your rule (in a slightly modified way):
RewriteRule ^register/$ register.php
If you want to completely block /register.php by using mod_rewrite, use a variant of SleepyCod's answer:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} register\.php [NC]
RewriteCond %{IS_SUBREQ} false
RewriteRule .* - [F,L]
Explanation:
[NC]: Makes the condition case-insensitive, just in case you're on a windows box.
Condition 1: The requested filename is 'register.php', and
Condition 2: The request is no subrequest (this is important, since every new round through RewriteRules actually creates subrequests).
Rule: essentially do nothing
Flags: [F]: Send an 403 Forbidden header, [L]: This is the last rule to apply, skip all following rewrite rules
Rewriting correctly is an art by itself. I suggest you carefully read http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/rewrite/.
Cheers,
Try this.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} ^register\.php$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^/register register.php
Or this
Redirect register.php /register
Ignoring the user-experience part, you can implement the new rel=canonical link to sort out the search engines.
Although, for this case you should probably just use a 301 redirect from /register.php to /register/
In register.php
if ( stristr( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], '.php' ) )
{
header ('HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently');
header ('Location: /register');
}
