I am puzzeling with this issue for a while now. The website will become multilangual.
I try to add /nl-nl/ to the URL if this parameter is not in the URL.
So for example:
https://www.sample.com/page1
-to-
https://www.sample.com/nl-nl/page1
My current lines are:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(.*)([a-z-]{5})(.*)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}/nl-nl%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
But the url ends up with: https://www.sample.com/nl-nl/404
I hope someone sees what I didn't see. :)

i am working on project, which is running XAMPP localhost and PHP MYSQLI,
my question : how i replace "?","=" signs with "/" slash. ?
like, my url is "archive?date=2017-06-02&p=4"
and i want to force it "archive/2017-08-02/4"
i found many codes on stackoverflow and some other sites, but that are not working for me.
if codes are working then, CSS files and GET method doesn't work on my project.
complete code of .htaccess is given below.
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([^=]*)=([^=]*)=(.*) /$1/$2/$3 [N]
RewriteRule ^([^=]*)=([^=]*)$ $1/$2 [L]
RewriteRule ^home index.php [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^archive archive.php [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^about about.php [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^article article.php [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^news news.php [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^video videos.php [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^video?vid=([0-9]+) videos.php?q=$1 [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^article?num=([0-9]+) article.php?num=$1 [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^editorial?num=([0-9]+) editorial.php?num=$1 [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^news?news=([0-9]+) news.php?news=$1 [NC,L]
You cannot check against the query string in a rewrite rule. You need rewrite conditions for that:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} date=([^&]+)&p=(.+)
RewriteRule ^archive/? /archive/%1/%2?
Demo here: http://htaccess.mwl.be?share=81e85c09-d505-5206-ab14-6c5059107808
If you want to actually redirect just add [R=301,L] to the end of the RewriteRule.
However, looking at the above I suspect you have your script sitting listening at /archive/index.php?data=foo&p=bar but want URLs to be like /archive/date/p, ie pretty.
This is actually a very common misconception about how htaccess URL rewrites work when you first get into them.
RewriteRules will mask or redirect URLs for you but they cannot change the underlying location a script is located at and thus the address used to pass it information.
In other words - you can mask /archive/index.php?data=foo&p=bar as /archive/date/p so that requests made to /archive/date/p resolve to /archive/index.php?data=foo&p=bar, but you cannot make it so that if you enter /archive/index.php?data=foo&p=bar as URL you have the URL change to /archive/date/p while still serving content from /archive/date/p. It has to be either or.
If this all sounds about right my advice would be as follows:
First, put your code into a different file, say /archive/script.php.
Next add the following to your htaccess:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} date=([^&]+)&p=(.+)
RewriteRule ^archive/? /archive/%1/%2? [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^archive/([^/]+)/([^/]+) /archive/script.php?date=$1&p=$2
Note that the first two lines are the same as before, but now there is a new line that looks for the masked URL format of /archive/date/p and sends it off to the actual script, which is handled by the new RewriteRule.
The behaviour of the new rule is demoed here: http://htaccess.mwl.be?share=06751667-f16f-5c13-91eb-dd5cffdc6db3
Hope this makes sense / helps.
I've got probably a little problem, which is the redirect from A to B without changing URL (still A) and send A as GET variable. And the second thing is to check if A doesn't start like /news.....
For example:
User access url: www.custom.com/news and rewrite does nothing here but if user access url: www.custom.com/something/abc it will redirect it to www.custom.com/router.php?path=/something/abc and visible URL for user will be still www.custom.com/something/abc
Now, I've got rule like this one:
RewriteRule !^(/news.*)$ /router.php?path=$1 [NS,R=301,L]
But it doesn't do the job and it creates and error for infinity loop(ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS)
Could you give me at least some advice how to resolve my problem?
Edit.
I've changed rule a bit and add a RewriteCond but there's still infinity loop. What's wrong here?
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/news.*$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/router\.php.*$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /router.php?path=$1 [NS,R=301,L]
Edit2.
Above code now works(I've removed escape character from condition rule), but redrect still changes URL to www.sample.com/router.php=something/abc
EDIT 3:
I was wondering why my route was displaying a little bit odd, and I found the solution.
First this is that redirect was in infinity loop so that's why I've got www.sample.com/router.php?path=something/abc rather than www.sample.com/something/abc(it looped twice and saved router.php as last URI).
Second thing is that I had L-flag where I should use it... And I've add NC-flag for sure that everything will redirect.
That's my code if it could help someone:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/news.*$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/assets.*$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/images.*$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/router.php.*$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /router.php?path=$1 [NC]
Thanks to CBroe for help!
EDIT 4:
I thought that everything's fine, but now I found that when I am typing in a URL: www.sample.com/abc and press Enter it rewrite to the router.php and does not change URL so it is still www.sample.com/abc.
But when I am using links with href like: www.sample.com/abc it rewrite to router.php but the URL is changed too! After clicking link it's changing URL to: www.sample.com/abc?path=abc where I want to still have www.sample.com/abc
I was searching a lot and everywhere rewrite didn't make changes like mine code.
Does anyone have idea how to fix it? Thanks!
I found what was creating this weird issue.
It was a slash at the end. So if url was ending without "/" at the end it was automatically adding "/" and then GET path variable.
So I did a Rule for redirecting without slash url to url with slash.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /$1/ [L]
Alright, title is REALLY sloppy.
Here's my problem: I have a news site and when you go to the main page (domain.com) it redirects you to domain.com/news/top?geography=San_Francisco after it figures out your geography.
How do I use the .htaccess so that it goes from domain.com/news/top?geography=San_Francisco domain.com/San_Francisco/news/top ?
There are some similar questions, but I have not found one similar enough in that you're editing the URL as a furtherback subdirectory.
It should also be noted that I am using the Code Igniter framework for PHP and it normally has it as domain.com/index.php/news/top?geography=San_Francisco but I did a mod_rewrite already to get rid of the index.php. The code is as follows for that:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|robots\.txt)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]
Code I've tried:
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/news/top$ /news/top?geography=$1 [L,QSA]
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|robots\.txt)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]
Before the index.php rule that you have, try adding this:
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/news/top$ /news/top?geography=$1 [L,QSA]
You'll need to make sure the links you generate are in the form of domain.com/San_Francisco/news/top though.
But to take care of the links in the wild that still look like the old way, you have to match against the actual request:
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /news/top\?geography=([^&]+)
RewriteRule ^news/top$ /%1/news/top? [L,R=301]
This will 301 redirect the browser if someone goes to the link domain.com/news/top?geography=San_Francisco and make it so the browser's address bar says this: domain.com/San_Francisco/news/top. At which point the browser will send another request for the second URL, and you use the rule above to change it back into the one with a query string.
----EDIT---
I have just realized that my explanation of the problem was missing an important piece of information.
The URL's should only be redirected if second parameter is present.
So the rule should read:
Redirect any URL that has /d/ in it, ONLY if /d2/ is also found in the URL.
----End Edit__
I have the need to 301 redirect all URL's on a site that contain a specific parameter to the same URL, but with an additional directory included. All of the URL's that require redirection contain a certain directory: /d/ Example:
http://www.mysite.com/category1/d/subcategory1/subdirectory2/
--Should Redirect to --
http://www.mysite.com/newdirectory/category1/d/subcategory1/subdirectory2/
The one thing in common with any of the URLs' requiring redirection is that they all contain a directory /d/ in the URL, which always immediately follows the "category" directory as indicated in bold in sample URL's above. I would then like to insert an additional directory in front of the category directory as indicated in bold in the sample URL's above. The rest of the URL will remain the same.
Can anyone help with this? I'm relatively new to mod_rewrite and realize I can make a big mess if I don't get it right.
Thanks in advance for anyone who can offer hlep
:)
Try this (edited to reflect change in question):
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^.*/d/.* [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^.*/d2/.* [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/newdirectory/ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)/d/(.*)$ http://www.mysite.com/newdirectory/$1/d/$2 [R=301,L]
Try adding the following to your htaccess file in the root directory of your site.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
#if the url contains a /d2/ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} /d2/ [NC]
RewriteRule ^([-a-zA-Z0-9]+/d/[-a-zA-Z0-9]+/[-a-zA-Z0-9]+/)$ /newdirectory/$1 [L,R,NC]
I am writing a multi language website. Therefore I would like some help with a URL rewrite problem.
Case:
When someone visits www.example.com without adding a country code (nl, en, de) the htaccess redirects the visitor to www.example.com/nl/ i.g.
RewriteRule !(nl|en|de)(.*).* /nl/ [R=301,L]
The website is renewed and has got many url's directing to the website (google, forums). i.g. www.example.com/oldpage-nomore.html. What I would like is the following; the htaccess should detect that the request uri doesn't contain nl,en or de and should redirect to pagenotfound.php. RewriteRule ^(.*)\.html /public/oldurl?section=nl¬found=$1$2&basehref=true&%1 [PT,L] the problem with this Rewrite rule is: all files ending in .html are being redirected.
What I am looking for is the following:
When someone visits www.example.com and no request uri is entered this should redirect to www.example.com/nl/
When there is a requested uri and this doens't contain a countrycode (nl|en|de) than redirect to pagenotfound.php
I tried the following but it doens't work:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^(nl|en|de)$
RewriteRule ^([a-z]{2})/(.*)\.html$ /pagenotfound.php?page=$2 [L,R=404]
I hope someone can help.
Thank you in advance.
Try to place this .htaccess file at the server root folder:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/?$
RewriteRule ^.*$ /nl/ [R]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(nl|en|de)
RewriteRule ^.*/(.*)\.html$ /pagenotfound.php?page=$2 [L,R=404]
(you probably made several mistakes, I tried to fix them)
I'm not sure with the first RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} regular expression - maybe remove the question mark or slash, I don't now... can't test now.
