I have a URL called
http://localhost:8080/text/index.php?id=2
and I have to redirect on
http://localhost:8080/text/2
So I added the below code in the .htaccess but it's not working
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([^/d]+)/?$ index.php?id=$1 [QSA]
I refer to the below two links. Is there any issue with my code?
common-htaccess-redirects-19-6-2018 and htaccess-rules
After suggested answer, I tried below code
HTML
Register
login
or
Register
login
.htaccess code
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^[\w-]+/(\d+)/?$ index.php?id=$1 [QSA,L]
With your shown samples, please try following. Please make sure to clear your browser cache before testing your URLs. This considers that you are
hitting URL http://localhost:8080/text/2 in browser.
##Making RewriteEngine ON here.
RewriteEngine ON
##Placing conditions to check if these are non-existing pages only.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
##Writing rule to rewrite to index.php with needed variable here.
RewriteRule ^[\w-]+/(\d+)/?$ index.php?id=$1 [QSA,L]
Issues in OP's attempt: You are trying to attempt to match digits in starting where your url doesn't have digits, so rather use [\w-]+ with it. Also use QSA,L flags with your rewrite rule to handle query string and come out of the rule in case this is executing.

I know this is very common question but I can't seem find any solution regarding in my problem. The folder structure looks like this:
- rootProject
- subfolder
* .htaccess
* index.php
Normal url params: http://website.com/subfolder/?dynamicKey=dynamicValue.
But What I want to achieve is like this: http://website.com/subfolder/dynamicKey/dynamicValue
But I failed to do that, I can only retrieve the dynamicKey.
Here is my current htaccess:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([a-z]+)/?$ index.php?$1 [NC,QSA,L]
Thanks to #Ar Rakin. Here is the solution.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([a-z]+)/?$ index.php?$1 [NC,QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^([a-z]+)/([a-z]+)/?$ index.php?$1=$2 [NC,QSA,L]
With your shown samples and attempted code, please try following htaccess rules. We need to add conditional checks before rewrite rules else later it will affect your existing pages also.
Make sure to clear your browser cache before testing your URLs.
RewriteEngine On
##Added conditions if non-existing pages requested then only perform rewrite.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([a-z]+)/?$ index.php?$1 [NC,QSA,L]
##Added conditions if non-existing pages requested then only perform rewrite.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([a-z]+)/([a-z]+)/?$ index.php?$1=$2 [NC,QSA,L]
NOTE: your used regex [a-z] will only match small letters in uri, in case it needed to check any alphabets(capital OR small) then change FROM [a-z] TO [a-zA-Z] in above rules also.
I'm running a few .htaccess rewrite rules, to transform the URL path into a index.php query parameter.
So basically when someone visits https://example.com/elections it transforms the URL into https://example.com/?page=elections
Options -Indexes
RewriteEngine on
# Ignore extensions
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.(css|js|jpg|png|gif|svg|pkg)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^([^/]+/[^/]+/). $1 [R=301,L]
# Rewrite
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9]+)$ /index.php?page=$1 [L,QSA]
This works great! There's only one issue, and that is unexpected behavior when there are 3 or more slashes in the URL the visitor entered.
So when someone visits https://example.com/one/two/three it transforms the URL into https://example.com/C:/xampp/htdocs/project/test/test/ (localhost test).
How can I make it so it just returns the regular 404 instead of this unexpected behavior?
(It's odd because it doesn't do that with 2 slashes)
Converting my comment to answer so that solution is easy to find for future visitors.
Problem is due to your first 301 error which causing this unwanted redirect and that too to a wrong target URL.
You can just keep this code in your .htaccess:
Options -Indexes
RewriteEngine on
# Rewrite
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9]+)/?$ index.php?page=$1 [L,QSA]
Make sure to test after clearing browser cache or test in a new browser to avoid old browser cache.
I am simply trying to rewrite automatically this:
From: mysite.com/channel.php?id=BBC&name=British Broadcasting Company &date=today
To: mysite.com/channel-britishbroadcastingcompany-today.html
I've tried with:
RewriteRule ^channel-(.*)-(.*)\.html$ /channel.php?id=1&name=$2&date=$3 [R]
But nothing happens.
Hope this simplest one will help you out. This will redirect if
1. REQUEST_URI is /channel.php
2. QUERY_STRING matches this pattern id=something&name=something&date=something
Redirect this to /channel-%1-%2.html here
1. %1 will hold value of name parameter
2. %2 will hold value of date parameter
RewriteEngine on
Options -MultiViews
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/channel\.php$
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} id=.*?&name=(.*?)&date=(.*)
RewriteRule .* /channel-%1-%2.html? [R=301]
As per the requirement specified by OP to first redirect url on html page on the basis of some query parameters then rewriting the request on previous page. So the complete code of .htaccess will be like this.
RewriteEngine on
Options -MultiViews
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/channel\.php$
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} id=.*?&name=(.*?)&date=(.*)
RewriteRule .* /channel-%1-%2? [R=301]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/channel\-(.*?)\-(.*?)
RewriteRule .* /channel.php? [L]
Explanation of 2nd part which is added.
1. REQUEST_FILENAME if file does not exist as a file and directory.
2. REQUEST_URI If request_uri starts with such pattern channel-somewords-somewords
then rewrite request on /channel.php
If I understand the problem correctly, You currently have a file channel.php and what You want to achieve is get more "friendly" URLs for SEO and general aesthetics in the browser location bar but still have channel.php handle your requests.
If this is really the case then You need a two-way rewrite.
First, You need to take your original URL and redirect it to a new, pretty version.
Second, You need to rewrite this pretty URI internally and still feed it to channel.php behind the scenes.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
# This part rewrites channel.php?name=X&date=Y into channel-X-Y.html
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} =GET
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (.*\&)?name=([^&]+)\&date=([^&]+)(?:\&(.*))?
RewriteRule ^channel.php$ channel-%2-%3.html?%1%4 [R,L,NE]
# This part rewrites it back into channel.php but keeps the "friendly" URL visible
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^channel-(.*)-(.*).html$ channel.php?name=$1&date=$2 [L,QSA]
Note that the first rule-set limits the rewrite to method GET - otherwise You will lose any submitted POST data.
It also allows for any other query-string parameters to surround name and date (the rest of query-string parameters will pass-through to .html URI and then will be picked back up by channel.php)
Also note the ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS rule - this is crucial, without that part You'll be stuck in redirect loop.
See
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-s
RewriteRule ^([a-z0-9-_.]+)/?$ index.php?id=$1 [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^([a-z0-9-_.]+)/([a-z0-9]+)/?$ index.php?id=$1&goto=$2 [NC,L]
What it's going to do is check the index.php and replace to some like, site/dir/index.php to site/dir/namehere than in index.php you can use explode() to separate the values of current url ang get the variables
I am assuming you are asking for rewrite although you are using redirect flag in your current rules, and also assuming BBC to be static in id variable then try with below,
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^channel-([^/]+)-([^/]+).html$ channel.php?id=BBC&name=$1&date=$2 [L]
I am working on a site where I have many short URLs which is redirected to a bigger version of URL. The idea is that the short URLs are distributed offline and users generally remembers them and types in the browser address bar. As example:
http://www.example.com/abc should redirect to http://www.example.com/higher_education/companion/politics/abc.html
Also there are some external links as well. like: http://www.example.com/google will redirect user to https://www.google.com
EDIT -
There is another scenario where http://www.example.com/elementary/def.html will be redirected to http://www.example.com/elementary/xyz.html
However, we now want to achieve this with RewriteMap. The code that we've written for that is as below:
<IfModule rewrite_module>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteMap custommap txt:/var/www/vhosts/example.com/httpdocs/map.txt
#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/index.php$
RewriteRule "^(.*)$" "${custommap:$0}" [R,L,NC]
</IfModule>
The map.txt contains:
abc http://www.example.com/higher_education/companion/politics/abc.html
google https://www.google.com
The problem is .htaccss file contains also some RewriteRule.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)/(.*)\.html$ /index.php?sid=$1&ssid=$2 [L,NC,QSA]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.html$ /index.php?sid=$1 [L,NC,QSA]
So any request comes with .html will be served by index.php as standard CMS feature. However, now the code goes into redirect loop.
If someone shares some light in order to mitigate this issue then that would be great. The Apache version is 2.2 so I can't use any IF-ELSE in that.

Aneek
You should put some restrictions on the rule serving URLs from RewriteMap:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond ${custommap:$0} !^$
RewriteRule ^[^.]+$ ${custommap:$0} [R=301,L,NE]
This will ensure only non-files and non-directories with no DOT in URI will be handled by custommap.
More importantly it will also check existence of a mapping in custommap before redirecting.
Make sure you clear your browser cache before testing this change.
I'm using with good results the following code to access alla of my php files into the /it directory without specifying the extension. In other words I can access to "http://www.mydomain.com/it/about.php" just writing "http://www.mydomain.com/it/about".
Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.mydomain.com/it/$1.php [L]
the same happen when i try to access to http://www.mydomain.com/it/question_answers.php.
How can I access directly to *"http://www.mydomain.com/it/question_answers.php"* also writing "http://www.mydomain.com/it/question-answers"?
I wrote the floowing code below the previous but it seems not to work.
Redirect 301 /question-answer http://www.mydomain.com/it/question_answer.php
because if i write "http://www.mydomain.com/it/question-answer" the browser try to open the page:
"http://www.mydomain.com/it/question-answer.php.php.php.php.php.php.php.php.php.php.php.php.php.php.php.php.php.php.php.php"
A small abstract of the post:
I have the page *"http://www.mydomain.com/it/question_answers.php"*
with the first part of code I can get it using the link *"http://www.mydomain.com/it/question_answers"*
I'd like to access the same page also with the following "http://www.mydomain.com/it/question-answers"
Thanks!
This should work for you:
Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.mydomain.com/$1.php
RewriteRule it/question-answer\.php http://www.mydomain.com/it/question_answer.php [R=301,L]
I have changed two things: I deleted it/ in the new URL of the first RewriteRule. Otherwise you would be redirected to it/it/
I also added \.php to the second RewriteRule. I don't really know why, but the RewriteRule seems to replace the pattern instead of redirecting. And if your pattern is it/question-answer and the real url is it/questions-answer.php the .php will not be replaced.
