I am trying to make a link that looks like https://www.exapmle.com/profile.php?u=8 to look like https://www.exapmle.com/profile/8
I have a tried variations of this in htaccess:
RewriteRule ^/profile/([0-9]+)/?$ profile.php?u=$1
RewriteRule ^/profile/([0-9]+)\.html /profile.php?u=$1
I don't know what i am doing wrong, the links don't change and I'm not getting any errors either
You may use this code in your site root .htaccess:
Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
# external redirect from actual URL to pretty one
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /profile\.php\?id=([^\s&]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /profile/%1? [R=301,L]
# internal forward from pretty URL to actual one
RewriteRule ^/?profile/(\d+)(?:\.html)?/?$ profile.php?u=$1 [L,QSA,NC]

i'm searching for rule for change link in htaccess.
Currently the link looks like this:
localhost.com/forum/profile.php?id=1
And this is the effect I would like to achieve:
localhost.com/forum/profile/1
I added the following rules:
Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/forum/profile\.php\?id=([0-9]+)\s [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /forum/profile/%1? [R=301,L]
The problem is that the page automatically redirects to the expected link, but a 404 error is returned
You need one more rule to map forum/profile/123 to forum/profile\.php?id=123. Please clear your browser cache before testing your URLs.
Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/forum/profile\.php\?id=([0-9]+)\s [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /forum/profile/%1? [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^forum/profile/([0-9]+)/?$ /forum/profile.php?id=$1 [NC,QSA,L]
I've never needed to use a .htaccess before and I'm fairly new to coding I'm trying to get localhost/index.php?id=123456789 to be passed as localhost/123456789/ but I just cant get the HTaccess right, i've tried everything I could find from prevoius posts here, haha!
My current HTACCESS looks like this, however it doesnt do what I want.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^id/(\d+)$ /index.php?id=$1 [NC,QSA,L]
You can do it with mod_rewrite in .htaccess however I'm not sure from your question which direction you want it to be passed to.
If you want people to type the php script in the URL bar you want:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} id=([0-9]+)
RewriteRule ^index.php$ %1/
Or if you want people to enter the "pretty" version but for your server to load the PHP script you need:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)/$ index.php?id=$1&%{QUERY_STRING}
For both ways and 301 redirect to pretty URL:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)/$ index.php?id=$1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} id=([0-9]+)
RewriteRule ^index.php$ %1/ [L,R=301]
This is my .htaccess code to rewrite clean url.
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
# Turn mod_rewrite on
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s/+download\.php\?id=([^\s&]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ download/%1? [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^download/([^/]+)/?$ download.php?id=$1 [L,QSA]
This code works fine for single parameter in url. For example it rewrites www.mysitename.com/download.php?id=123 to www.mysitename.com/download/123
But when I tried to pass multiple parameters in url, all I got are errors. Searched various resources and related questions but didn't got proper solution.
I need a url like www.mysitename.com/download/123/file-name instead of www.mysitename.com/download.php?id=123&name=file-name
I guess I've to use something thing like this RewriteRule ^(.*)/(.*)$ download.php?id=$1&name=$2. But while implementing I'm getting 404 error. How can I alter My code to pass multiple urls. Thanks in advance.
You just need to add a parameter in your rule
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
# Turn mod_rewrite on
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s/+download\.php\?id=([0-9]+)&name=([^\s&]+)\s [NC]
RewriteRule ^ download/%1/%2? [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^download/([0-9]+)/([^/]+)/?$ download.php?id=$1&name=$2 [L]
I have a domain (let's say www.example.com) and would like this to point to /Example_folder/ of my server (within /var/www/).
So, if I try to goto www.example.com/images/test.html or example.com/images/test.html, it should be actually pointing at /Example_folder/images/test.html.
I tried to get this working using following code, but I can't figure out.
Trial#1:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?example.com$ [NC]
Rewriterule ^(.*) /Example_Folder/ [L]
If I use above code, I get ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS.
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?example.com$ [NC]
Rewriterule ^(.*) /Example_Folder/index.html [L]
If I use above code (where index.html is specified), it would redirect but I can't get my domain to point at its subdirectories. (www.example.com/images/test.html would also point at www.example.com/index.html)
I got it working using the code from link below:
htaccess Silent Redirect to Subdirectory: Subdirectory showing when no trailing '/'
Last thing that remains is that when I point to www.example.com/Example_Folder, I want the address bar to show www.example.com, but I have not figure that out yet.
You can use this negative lookahead based rule to avoid rewrite loop:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?example\.com$ [NC]
Rewriterule ^((?!Example_Folder/).+)$ /Example_Folder/$1 [L,NC]
Which means rewrite only if URI doesn't already start with Example_Folder/.
As an FYI, I am using the following .htaccess file in located at www.site.com/content/
When a user visits www.site.com/content/login I want it to display the content from www.site.com/content/userlogin.php (masked via rewrite, and not redirect) - which I have done SUCCESSFULLY like so:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /content/
RewriteRule ^login/?$ /content/userlogin.php [NC,L]
However, I would like to add the follwoing: If they try to access www.site.com/content/userlogin.php directly, I want them to get redirected to a 404 page at www.site.com/content/error/404.php
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /content/
RewriteRule ^login/?$ /content/userlogin.php [NC,S=1,L]
RewriteRule ^userlogin\.php$ /content/error/404.php [NC,L]
With that in the .htaccess file, both www.site.com/content/login and www.site.com/content/userlogin.php show www.site.com/content/error/404.php
First the S=1 will have no function as the L directive will make any further rewriting stop.
It seems like the first RewriteRule makes Apache go through the .htaccess rules one more time, so you need to know if the first rewrite has happend. You could do this by setting an environment variable like this:
RewriteRule ^login/?$ /content/userlogin.php [E=DONE:true,NC,L]
So when the next redirect occurs the Environment variable actually gets rewritten to REDIRECT_<variable> and you can do a RewriteCond on this one like this:
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_DONE} !true
RewriteRule ^userlogin\.php$ /content/error/404.php [NC,L]
Hope this helps
Use %{THE_REQUEST} variable in your code instead:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /content/
RewriteRule ^login/?$ content/userlogin.php [NC,L]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s/+userlogin\.php[\s\?] [NC]
RewriteRule ^ content/error/404.php [L]
