Backlinks, so links from other pages to my wordpress page, are missing a slash after the .com part. So https://mypage.com/subpage results in https://mypage.comsubpage
This happened after I've changed the domain of a page from .de to .com
Everything else seems to work fine, only those external backlinks to my page are missing the slash.
Tried all different rewrite rules but none worked or even got me a 404.
This is my code:
# BEGIN rlrssslReallySimpleSSL rsssl_version[3.2.5]
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
</IfModule>
# END rlrssslReallySimpleSSL
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
https://mypage.comsubpage should result in https://mypage.com/subpage for links from other pages/backlinks. Thanks!
Everything ok with the rewrite rules. Obviously the mistake was in my cache of my browser (Chrome). Firefox and Safari worked ok (only found that out after I posted this question, sorry).
After I deleted the cache Chrome went ok and added the slash.
Thanks anyways

I need to rewrite an url like /services/rental/faq-2/ so that the user (and robots) see /services/rental/faq/
This is my current .htaccess (it's Wordpress) with no successful rewrite:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
RewriteRule ^/services/rental/faq/?$ /services/rental/faq-2/ [NC,L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
Any of the hints I searched actually worked, maybe rule order is important or (most probable) I have no idea on how to do it
Your external URL is /services/rental/faq[/]. This is the one produced by links in your pages, and is the one robots and users see. It is NOT produced by .htaccess -- .htaccess only sees incoming URIs.
Try moving your new RewriteRule up before all the other WordPress RewriteRules (after the RewriteBase).
I got a problem with my .htaccess here and altough I searched the web and tried many things, I could not find any solution...
I have a wordpress-installation with enabled permalinks. Additional to that, I need to rewrite another URL on this wordpress-installation, which does not belong to WP.
If a user browses to http://www.URL.com/?page_id=30&tag=all&filterCategory=6\%23Jackets, I'd like to show http://www.URL.com/jackets.html as URL. There should also be the possibility to directly browse to http://www.URL.com/jackets.html.
My .htaccess looks like this
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
RewriteRule ^jacket\.html$ http://www.URL.com/?page_id=30&tag=all&filterCategory=6\%23Jackets [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
Does anyone have any idea why this does not work?
The WordPress rewrite rules are redirecting any requests to non-existant files through WordPress. The rewrite rule responsible for this, RewriteRule . /index.php [L], is marked with [L], indicating that no more rules are to be processed after it. In order for your rule to work, it must be placed before the WordPress rules, but after the line RewriteBase /.
I have several urls on a Joomla site which have been indexed and I need to 301 redirect them into some new pages. The old URL is formed like this:
http://www.mydomain.com/en/wfmenuconfig/family/family-disease/177-category-english?start=20
I want it to go to:
http://www.mydomain.com/en/family-members/family-disease
I tried using:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^start=(.*)$
RewriteRule ^/en/wfmenuconfig/family/family-disease/177-category-english$ http://www.www.mydoamin.com/en/family-members/family-disease%1 [R=301,L]
I've tried several answers on here but nothing seems to be working.
htaccess 301 redirect dynamic url
and
301 Redirecting URLs based on GET variables in .htaccess
Any ideas what I should try next? (I've tried a normal redirect 301)
You've almost got it. You need to remove the leading slash from your rule's pattern because it's removed from the URI when applying rules from an htaccess file:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^start=(.*)$
RewriteRule ^en/wfmenuconfig/family/family-disease/177-category-english$ /en/family-members/family-disease%1? [R=301,L]
You also don't need the http://www.www.mydoamin.com bit (2 sets of www). At the end of your target, you have family-disease%1, which means if start=20 then the end of your URL will look like: family-disease20. Is that right?
The new URL doesn't have the query string in it, so it is just stripping of the last URL path part. If you want it hardcoded
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^start=
RewriteRule ^en/wfmenuconfig/family/family-disease/177-category-english$ /en/family-members/family-disease? [R,L]
or a little bit more flexible
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^start=
RewriteRule ^en/wfmenuconfig/family/family-disease/.+$ /en/family-members/family-disease? [R,L]
or if you just want to keep two levels after en/wfmenuconfig
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^start=
RewriteRule ^en/wfmenuconfig/(.+?/.+?)/ /en/$1? [R,L]
Never test with 301 enabled, see this answer Tips for debugging .htaccess rewrite rules for details.
If you just want to redirect http://www.mydomain.com/en/wfmenuconfig/family/family-disease/177-category-english?start=$var into http://www.mydomain.com/en/family-members/family-disease, then you must try these directives:
# once per .htaccess file
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} start=([0-9]*)
RewriteRule ^en/wfmenuconfig/family/family-disease/177-category-english /en/family-members/family-disease [R=301,L]
But if that's not what you want, but to redirect http://www.mydomain.com/en/wfmenuconfig/family/family-disease/177-category-english?start=$var into http://www.mydomain.com/en/family-members/family-disease$var then you could check this one:
# once per .htaccess file
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} start=([0-9]*)
RewriteRule ^en/wfmenuconfig/family/family-disease/177-category-english /en/family-members/family-disease%1 [R=301,L]
Now, give this one a little more try if it will work. If it's not, then find any suspicious why this code is not working:
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /en/
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} start=([0-9]*)
RewriteRule ^wfmenuconfig/family/family-disease/177-category-english /family-members/family-disease [R]
And go to http://www.mydomain.com/en/wfmenuconfig/family/family-disease/177-category-english?start=$AnyNumber if it's redirecting into http://www.mydomain.com/en/family-members/family-disease just make sure that your web server have mod_rewrite.
I just wanted to throw this out there, I was also having trouble getting the RewriteRule to work. I have a client that upgraded to a WordPress powered site from .asp pages. What I had to do to get this to work is insert the RewriteCond and RewriteRule in the htaccess file BEFORE the "# BEGIN WordPress" section. Now it works just as it should.
This is posted way late, but hopefully it helps someone else out there running into the same issue.
Doesn't Work:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^var=somestring$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^oldpage\.asp$ http://www.domain.com/newpage? [R=301,L]
Does Work:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^var=somestring$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^oldpage\.asp$ http://www.domain.com/newpage? [R=301,L]
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
Order of operations must be important =)
My local site have project folder http://127.0.0.1/myproject/index.php. I want to be able to map its URL so if someone enters http://127.0.0.1/myproject/service, it should display the same content or perform the same functionality as index.php does.
I tried some example on different site but couldn't get it done.
What I tried so far is :
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^(.*)\myproject\service$ $index.php
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /myproject/
RewriteRule service index.php [L,QSA]
First, setup the base to rewrite. In the rule, all paths are now relative to the base, not absolute.
The flag L denotes no other rules should be applied.
The flag QSA denotes that the query string should be appended.
For more information: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_rewrite.html
I would even go as far as to say, check what Wordpress is giving you:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /myproject/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /myproject/index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
How can I re-inforce the forward slash after domain - situation like this:
http://www.domain.com
to become
http://www.domain.com/
At the moment I have something like this:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.domain\.com$ [NC] [AND]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^(.*)\.domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule .* /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
I've tried different things, but cannot get it to work.
http://example.com and http://example.com/ are the same URL. You don't need to do anything at all. See RFC 3986 for details.
Edit: Because this is inexplicably being voted down despite being completely correct, please see section 6.2.3 in particular:
the following four URIs are equivalent:
http://example.com
http://example.com/
http://example.com:/
http://example.com:80/
Most if not all browsers add the / by default. However browsers recently decided to hide the http:// and the / after from the user (it however still sends them). The other thing is that mod_dir which is installed in pretty much all apache installations already does a 301 redirect if the / is not present. So I thing you want to solve something that isn't a problem to begin with.
