I want my website to redirect from https://www.sitename.com/single-product/supplier-name/supplier-id/article-name/article-id to https://www.sitename.com/single-product and want the same original URL restored.
Currently, https://www.sitename.com/single-product/supplier-name/supplier-id/article-name/article-id URL gets me to 404
I know I will have to use the P flag in .htaccess file in document root to get this working. But I don't know why my solution is not working
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/single-product
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /single-product/$1 [P]
I have found a solution not it is not working on my server. I guess mod_proxy is currently off on my server
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule single-product/* https://www.sitename.com/single-product/ [P]
This is a great website to test these scripts

I have a Detroit iOS & Android Mobile App Development website that only has one web page : index.html.
The source code of the site is here.
Instead of showing a 404 error page, I want to redirect the user to thefirstprototype.com if they try to go anywhere else or try to put anything after.
For eg:
mail.thefirstprototype.com takes the user to just thefirstprototype.com
thefirstprototype.com/mail takes the user to just thefirstprototype.com
I know it's possible to do it using a .htaccess in the root folder, but I am just not sure how. There are a lot of tutorials showing how to do it between different domains, but nothing to my specific case. How do I do it?
Thanks
Edit1: Please note that I am not using any CMS like Wordpress. I am just plain FTP to push a static HTML, CSS, JS webpage to the hosting server
Try the following:
DirectoryIndex index.html
RewriteEngine On
# Redirect non-canonical hostnames (eg. mail)
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^example\.com$
RewriteRule ^ http://example.com/ [R=302,L]
# Redirect 404 to root
RewriteRule ^index\.html$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . / [R=302,L]
However, whether this catches requests for the mail. subdomain will depend on whether that subdomain points to the same place as your main domain. (For cPanel shared hosting, that is not necessarily the case.)
Change the 302 (temporary) redirect to 301 only once you have tested that this works OK - to avoid potential caching issues associated with 301 (permanent) redirects.
As an added bonus, you could redirect any direct requests for index.html back to the root. For example, add the following between the above two rule blocks:
# Remove "index.html" if requested directly
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteRule ^index\.html$ / [R=302,L]
The condition that checks against the REDIRECT_STATUS environment variable is to ensure we don't get a redirect-loop since mod_dir internally rewrites the request to index.html.
Trying to ask my question again and explain it the best I can.
I am running WAMP on windows 10. Apache version 2.4.18. My project is in www folder named hoidja.ee. mod_rewrite is enabled, AllowOverrideis set to All.
Inside that folder I have .htaccess file, where I am trying to accomplish rewrite without redirect and it does not work at all. I know the .htaccess file is working, since I can rewrite index.php to /home/ for example and it is working perfectly fine.
I have a page with all the users listing. You can click on the user, and it will take you to a url:
http://localhost/Hoidja.ee/hoidja.php?user_id=94&username=John
How I would like this to show is
http://localhost/Hoidja.ee/user/John
without any redirection.
What I have tried:
#tried first with only user_id
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^user_id=([A-Za-z0-9-]+)$
RewriteRule ^hoidja\.php$ /user/%1? [L]
This gave me 404 that /user/94 doesn't exist.
RewriteRule ^user/([0-9]+)/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/?$ hoidja.php?user_id=$1&username=$2 [QSA]
This doesn't do anything visually. If I enter http://localhost/Hoidja.ee/user/94/John in the url manually, it goes to that page and shows the user data, but if I enter the original url it does not rewrite it. I am using <base> as well.
I have tried all the possible ways but nothing seems to work. How can I accomplish the url rewrite?
You are getting the 404 error because you are rewriting to a non-existent path /user/94 .you will need to redirect /hoidja.php?user_id= to /user/94 and then rewrite /user/94 back to the real location.
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} !200
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^user_id=([A-Za-z0-9-]+)$
RewriteRule hoidja\.php$ /hoidja.ee/user/%1? [L,R]
RewriteRule ^(?:hoidja\.ee/)?user/(.+)$ /hoidja.ee/hoidja.php?user_id=$1 [L]
I have a static html home page.
I have a joomla installation at /blog/
I have a sub-blog at /blog/my-sub-blog
I want to it to show up in the browser as just /my-sub-blog
So I use this
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^my-sub-blog/?$ /blog/my-sub-blog/ [NC]
And the result is an "article not found" 404 in joomla.
If i add the redirect flag just for testing, it redirects just fine and works
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^my-sub-blog/?$ /blog/my-sub-blog/ [NC,R]
But I want it to invisibly rewrite, not redirect.
Any suggestions on how to get it to silently rewrite?
It's possible that joomla is looking at the REQUEST_URI and similar server variables which would show up as something different because the request is actually /my-sub-blog/ and not /blog/my-sub-blog/ like it's expecting. The easiest way to get around this is to have mod_proxy loaded, and internally proxy the request instead of redirecting the browser:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^my-sub-blog/?$ /blog/my-sub-blog/ [NC,P,L]
or better yet:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^my-sub-blog/?(.*)$ /blog/my-sub-blog/$1 [NC,P,L]
I have a requirement where in I want to give users of my site their personal url.
Something like "http://abc.example.com" and when any user types this url in browser it should open this link "http://www.example.com/index/sub-domain?username=abc"
So I tried writing and trying many codes and finally was successful with below code but problem is it redirects. I want an internal redirection. URL address window should remain as "http://abc.example.com".
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^.*$ index.php [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([a-z]+)\.example.com$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/index/sub-domain?username=%1
</IfModule>
I am not sure if It is possible or not ? Any advice or help will be of great help. Also can anyone suggest me some .htaccess tutorial.
If you do not specificy the R flag on your RewriteRule, mod_rewrite normally performs an internal rewrite. However, since you are using an absolute URL as your rewrite target, it has to be the exact same host, otherwise an external redirect will be issued.
If you really wish to internally redirect to another host, you should check out mod_proxy.
Could someone tell me how to rewrite this URL. I have looked at a lot of questions on stackoverflow but they seem to be missing my answer.
RewriteEngine On
That is what I have... its a bit poor.
I need to rewrite url's if they do not point to a directory.
I need to do this...
any.domain.com/pages/some-page-slug/login
To be rewritten to the correct url of...
any.domain.com/pages/login.php?page=32
Does anyone have any ideas on how this can be achieved?
1) Rewriting product.php?id=12 to product-12.html
It is a simple redirection in which .php extension is hidden from the browser’s address bar and dynamic url (containing “?” character) is converted into a static URL.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^product-([0-9]+)\.html$ product.php?id=$1
2) Rewriting product.php?id=12 to product/ipod-nano/12.html
SEO expert always suggest to display the main keyword in the URL. In the following URL rewriting technique you can display the name of the product in URL.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^product/([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)/([0-9]+)\.html$ product.php?id=$2
3) Redirecting non www URL to www URL
If you type yahoo.com in browser it will be redirected to www.yahoo.com. If you want to do same with your website then put the following code to .htaccess file. What is benefit of this kind of redirection?? Please check the post about SEO friendly redirect (301) redirect in php and .htaccess.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^optimaxwebsolutions\.com$
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.optimaxwebsolutions.com/$1 [R=301,L]
4) Rewriting yoursite.com/user.php?username=xyz to yoursite.com/xyz
Have you checked zorpia.com.If you type http://zorpia.com/roshanbh233 in browser you can see my profile over there. If you want to do the same kind of redirection i.e http://yoursite.com/xyz to http://yoursite.com/user.php?username=xyz then you can add the following code to the .htaccess file.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$ user.php?username=$1
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)/$ user.php?username=$1
5) Redirecting the domain to a new subfolder of inside public_html.
Suppose the you’ve redeveloped your site and all the new development reside inside the “new” folder of inside root folder.Then the new development of the website can be accessed like “test.com/new”. Now moving these files to the root folder can be a hectic process so you can create the following code inside the .htaccess file and place it under the root folder of the website. In result, www.test.com point out to the files inside “new” folder.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^test\.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.test\.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/new/
RewriteRule (.*) /new/$1
TO do this you need to write a front controller.
See here, here, here, and here.
Alternatively in Apache you can rewrite this
any.domain.com/pages/32/login
or this:
any.domain.com/32/login
or even this:
any.domain.com/some-slug/32/login
to this:
any.domain.com/pages/login.php?page=32
One way or another to do this with only apache you need to supply the page id in some fashion. Keep in mind even with format any.domain.com/some-slug/32/login the content of the slug is irrelevant and won't necessarily link to the correct page. Which I imagine is undesirable and bad for SEO.
Another alternative is using RewriteMap. But this will be tricky and require reloading apache configurations whenever a page/slug is created/edit.
I understand that pages and login are static in this case and some-page-slug is changing. And you always want to redirect to static page /pages/login.php?page=32
So this is how to do it:
1) Rewrite
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^pages/([a-zA-Z0-9_]+)/login(.*)$ /pages/login.php?page=32
or 2) Redirect Pernament
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^pages/([a-zA-Z0-9_]+)/login(.*)$ /pages/login.php?page=32 [R=301,L]
or 3) Redirect Temporary
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^pages/([a-zA-Z0-9_]+)/login(.*)$ /pages/login.php?page=32 [R=302,L]
