htaccess filter doesn't work - .htaccess

i'm trying to rewrite my url's, but i'm also using a router.
so i want the router to control error pages such as error 404 not found, and not my htaccess file. everything is working perfectly fine, except for the filter string in my htaccess file. this is the rewrite line:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9-z\-\_]+)$ index.php?urlpath=$1
so then issue is that it doesn't accept characters like . and /
so this works: https://www.mystem.tk/aurlthatdoesntexist
but this won't work: https://www.mystem.tk/apagethatdoesntexist.php
and this won't work either: http://www.mystem.tk/a/url/that/doesnt/exist
last one: https://www.mystem.tk/a/page/that/doesnt/exist.php
i hope my problem is clear on this way... you can check it out yourself at https://www.mystem.tk/

This is due to your regex [a-zA-Z0-9-z\-\_]+ which doesn't allow dot or forward slashes.
You can use this rule instead of your existing rule:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule .+ index.php?urlpath=$0 [L,QSA]

Remove trailing slash from url using htaccess

i have the following rewrite condition and it works fine:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([a-z0-9_-]+)\.html$ index.php/page/$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|asset|robots\.txt)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
However, all it takes is adding a trailing backslash to my url and the site breaks. I have seen several similar questions and answers but nothing works for me, mainly because i'm not familiar with htaccess.
How can i make make my url auto change from
http://localhost:8888/mysite/mylink/
to
http://localhost:8888/mysite/mylink
Iam using codeigniter and my application is still in localhost. Appreciate any help in this. Thanks.
Just change all your links without that slash at the end.

Dot not allowed between the url in .htaccess in opencart

I have been trying to include dot in my url but .htaccess RewriteRule is not helping me to do so.
I have been using the following expression
RewriteRule ^user/(\w+)/([-a-zA-Z0-9_\.]) index.php?id=$1&route=$2 [L,QSA]
while this allows me to add a dot at the end of url it doesnt allow me to do so in between the url.
for eg if i use
http://localhost/opencart/user/vendor_name.
it doesnot give an error but if i use
http://localhost/opencart/user/vendor.name
it gives an error of page not found.
Can anyone give me an expression that will allow me to do so.
Because your regex is wrong. [-a-zA-Z0-9_\.] will match only single dot after slash.
Try this rule
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^user/[-\w.]+)/([-\w.]+)/?$ index.php?id=$1&route=$2 [L,QSA]

Basic URL rewriting: How to have a css link, img src, etc, ignore it?

I have a website running at localhost/pm and the RewriteBase is correctly set to /pm/. There is a link tag in my document: <link ... href="themes/default/css/default.css">.
When the url is localhost/pm or localhost/pm/foo the CSS works all right. When there are more slashes in the URL, however, like localhost/pm/foo/bar the relative URL if the stylesheet changes to foo/themes/default/css/default.css.
How do I get this to work without having to put some sort of PHP path resolution in the link tag?
# invoke rewrite engine
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /pm/
# Protect application and system files from being viewed
RewriteRule ^(?:system)\b.* index.php/$0 [L]
# Allow any files or directories that exist to be displayed directly
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
# Rewrite all other URLs to index.php/URL
RewriteRule .* index.php/$0 [PT]
EDIT:
Basically what I need now is this:
If request contains folder name /themes/ scrap everything that is before /themes/ and rewrite the rest to /pm/themes/...
I tried it like this: RewriteRule ^.*(/themes/.*)$ /pm/themes/$1 but I get an internal server error. Why?
If I do it like this: RewriteRule ^.*(/themes/.*)$ /pm/themes/ (ie. just remove $1 from the end) and use the URL http://localhost/pm/foo/themes/foo/ the resulting physical location is http://localhost/pm/themes which is what is expected too, which in turn means that at least my regex is correct. What am I missing?
The RewriteRule is almost correct
RewriteRule ^.*(/themes/.*)$ /pm/themes/$1
This rewrites http://localhost/pm/foo/themes/default/css/default.css to http://localhost/pm/themes/themes/default/css/default.css, which is one themes too much. Use this instead
RewriteRule /themes/(.*)$ /pm/themes/$1 [L]
But now you have an endless rewrite loop, because /pm/themes/.. is rewritten again and again. To prevent this, you need a RewriteCond excluding /pm/themes
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/pm/themes/
RewriteRule /themes/(.*)$ /pm/themes/$1 [L]
Now the request is rewritten only once and you're done.
You probably need to add the following lines before your RewriteRule:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
It will only evaluate your rewrite rule if the requested file or directory doesn't exist.
You should post your .htaccess file so we can offer better advice

htaccess redirection dynamic

I am trying to redirect /en/news/12345 to http://www.xyz.com/en/newsletters/12345
the only thing is that "en" and "12345" can change but "news" is always the same.
I have the following so far:
RewriteRule /^(.)/news/(.)$ http://www.xyz.com/$1/news/$2 [R=301,L]
but if i go to mydomain/wp-admin then i get an endless redirect?? Any ideas why this is happening?
Thanks
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^en/news/([0-9]) http://www.xyz.com/en/newsletters/$1 [NC]
Please try this, hope it will solve your problem
I think I found the problem in your .htaccess file. Initially you had two conditions that prevented RewriteRule . /swissfil3/index.php [L] (catch-all) from redirecting when the path pointed to an existing file or folder (ignore-on-file):
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond only applies to the rule directly followed by the condition.
When you added a new rule directly below these directives, the catch-all rule was not prevented from redirecting existing files or directories like /wp-admin. I.e. every request not matching any rules before catch-all would be redirected to /swissfin/3/index.php.
In additoin you used (.) to capture each part of the path. This would match one arbitrary character, but no more, so your redirect would be limited to /X/news/Y, instead of /XX/news/YYYY..., to fix this you can use (.+) which will match zero or more chars, or even better ([^/]*) which will match zero or more characters not equal to /.
You should be able to avoid these problems by using the following code (where the catch-all directive has been moved directly below ignore-on-file, and the rewrite rule matches zero or more chars not equal to /):
# ...
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)/news/([^/]*)$ http://www.xyz.com/$1/news/$2 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /swissfin3/index.php [L]
Here you match every URL that contains a char

htaccess directory to file redirect problem

I’m trying to use the following .htaccess file
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^images/
RewriteRule (.*) view.php?picid=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^/user/(.*)$ /users.php?user=$1
I want two things to happen: Whenever someone requests /1234, it redirects to /view.php?picid=1234, and also when someone visits /users/bob, it redirects to /users.php?user=bob.
My code however, doesn’t seem to be working correctly.
There are several ways to do that. Here’s one that should work:
RewriteRule ^user/(.+)$ users.php?user=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)$ view.php?picid=$1 [L]
The first rule will catch any request that’s URI path begins with /user/ followed by one or more arbitrary characters. And the second will catch any request that’s URI path begins with / followed by one or more digits.
The initial problem with your rules is that the RewriteRule with (.*) will match everything.
If you do not want it to match a URL with a slash in it (such as users/bob), try ^([^/]*)$
Secondly, after a URL is rewritten, the new URL goes through your rules again. If you want to avoid matching something that has already been rewritten once, you should add a condition like
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.php
