I would like to change my home page url.
https://roto.com.ua/ua/index to https://roto.com.ua/ua/#index
Want to allow custom symbol # to pattern settings MODX.
This is my current default pattern in MODX Settings. When i Try to apply to alias #index, it's rewrite to index..... Probably not allow add custom symbols to alias!
friendly_alias_restrict_chars_pattern
/[\0\x0B\t\n\r\f\a&=+%#<>"~:`#\?\[\]\{\}\|\^'\\]/
Hashes are special in URLs. When you send a request to /ua/#index, the server only sees the /ua/ part. That means that while you may be able of convincing MODX to accept it in the alias, MODX will not be able of routing your requests properly because it doesn't see index.
Remove the hash tag from the regex should be enough.
Change this:
[\0\x0B\t\n\r\f\a&=+%#<>"~:`#\?\[\]\{\}\|\^'\\]
Into this:
[\0\x0B\t\n\r\f\a&=+%<>"~:`#\?\[\]\{\}\|\^'\\]
This allows # to be in the URL alias.

I have these three links:
localhost/my_projects/my_website.php
localhost/my_projects/my_website.html
localhost/my_projects/my_website
The paths of the php and html files are as follows:
C:\xampp\htdocs\my_projects\my_website.php
C:\xampp\htdocs\my_projects\my_website.html
The link without an extension is "artificial" and I want to use said link:
localhost/my_projects/my_website
to get the contents of either of these links:
localhost/my_projects/my_website.php
localhost/my_projects/my_website.html
The reason for the two example files, instead of just one, is that I want to be able to switch between those two files when I edit the htaccess file. Obviously I only want to access one of those files at a time.
What do I need to have in my .htaccess file inside the my_projects folder to accomplish that? How can I make one specific link redirect to another specific link?
After reading your comment clarifying your folder structure I corrected the RewriteRule. (By the way, it would be best if you add that info to the question itself instead of in comments).
The url you want to target is: http://localhost/my_projects/my_website
http:// is the protocol
localhost is your domain (it could also be 127.0.0.1 or a domian name like www.example.com in the Internet)
I assume you are running Apache on port 80, otherwise in the url you need to also specify the port. For port 8086 for example it would be http://localhost:8086/my_projects/my_website.
The real path is htdocs/my_projects/my_website.php or htdocs/my_projects/my_website.html depending on your needs (obviously both won't work at the same time).
Here the my_projects in the "fake" url collides with the real folder "my_projects" so Apache will go for the folder and see there is no my_website (with no extension) document there (it won't reach the rewrite rules).
There is a question in SO that provides a work around for this, but it is not a perfect solution, it has edge cases where the url will still fail or make other urls fail. I had posted it yesterday, but I seem not to find it now.
The simple solution if you have the flexibility for doing it is to change the "fake" url for it not to collide with the real path.
One option is for example to replace the underscores with hyphens.
Then you would access the page as http://localhost/my-projects/my-website if you want to keep a sort of "fake" folder structure in the url. Otherwise you could simply use http://localhost/my-website.
Here are both alternatives:
# This is for the directory not to be shown. You can remove it if you don't mind that happening.
Options -Indexes
RewriteEngine On
#Rule for http://localhost/my-projects/my-website
RewriteRule ^my-projects/my-website(.+)?$ my_projects/my_website.php$1 [NC,L]
#Rule for http://localhost/my-website
RewriteRule ^my-website(.+)?$ my_projects/my_website.php$1 [NC,L]
(Don't use both, just choose one of these two, or use them to adapt it to your needs)
The first part the rewrite rule is the regular expression for your "fake" url, the second part is the relative path of your real folder structure upto the page you want to show.
In the regular expression we capture whatever what we assume to be possible query parameters after .../my_website, and paste it after my_website.php in the second part of the rule (the $1).
Later on if you want to point the url to my_website.html, you have to change the second part of the rule, where it says .php, replace it by .html.
By the way, it is perfectly valid and you'll see it in most SEO friendly web sites to write an url as http://www.somesite.com/some-page-locator, and have a rewrite rule that translates that url to a page on the website, which is what I had written in my first answer.
Is there any way I can remove the question mark from URL using Mod_Rewrite like this?:
domain.com/controller-name?parameter/parameter/parameter
to change question mark after controller-name to slash
domain.com/controller-name/parameter/parameter/parameter
I want to add this to htaccess in PrestaShop, where I send query like this: parameter/parameter/parameter to controller.
Normal Presta URL is domain.com/index.php?controller=controller-name and I set on SEO settings friendly URL to this controller to rewrite to only controller-name so SEO friendly URL is domain.com/controller-name .
To send some parameters to this controller I can use URL like this: domain.com/controller-name?(here parameters)
In my controller I grab parameters after question mark ? and show content according to this parameters. The parameters are separated by a slash. So I want to get rid of question mark and replace it by slash to get: domain.com/controller-name/(here parameters) with parameters I want to look like this domain.com/controller-name/parameter/parameter/
When I use URL domain.com/controller-name/parameter/parameter/ shows error 404 and Presta don't see that I want content from controller-name.
I think it is achievable by mod_rewrite rule in .htaccess, but I don't know how to write rule according to this problem.
OR maybe there is a way to add something to controller or SEO configuration in Presta to work with / instead ? in query... that would be great solution...
You can use the history.pushState and history.popState to change the URL in the browser which won't cause a page reload. But the problem is that old browsers don't support this.
Alternatively, you can set the window.location.hash property to a value that contains whatever state information you need, then either use the window.onhashchange event, or for older browsers that don't support onhashchange (IE < 8, Firefox < 3.6), periodically check to see if the hash has changed (using setInterval for example) and update the page. You will also need to check the hash value on page load to set up the initial content.
If you're using jQuery there's a hashchange plugin that will use whichever method the browser supports. I'm sure there are plugins for other libraries as well.
One thing to be careful of is colliding with ids on the page, because the browser will scroll to any element with a matching id.
I want to have stack overflow like url pattern in orchard blog. How to achieve it with Auto route pattern.
For example I want to have a pattern like
/myblog/Pages/4453/what-ever-title
Here, regardless of the trailing page name (what-ever-title) I want to always point to the item 4453. I have tried following pattern but failed.
{Content.Container.Path}/Pages/{Content.Id}
{Content.Container.Path}/Pages/{Content.Id}/*
{Content.Container.Path}/Pages/{Content.Id}/{Content.Slug}
The reason I want this is that I can then change the page final url without affecting the links already being built in SEO efforts.
for instance for this question stack overflow url is
/questions/24145078/how-match-any-in-orchard-cms-auto-route
Regardsless of what I use for trailing part as long as the number 24145078 is there the url works fine.
This is not how autoroute works. Autoroute is not routing, it's generating unique paths for content items, based on token-driven rules. I you want a wildcard route, write a wildcard route.
But for this specific appliation, I'm afraid that's still not what you should do. The standard way of dealing with resources that move to a new address is to establish a permanent redirect from the old URL to the new. This is most efficiently done using the URL rewriting feature of IIS.
How do you rewrite a URL in Notes 9 XPages.
Let's say I have:
www.example.com/myapp.nsf/page-name
How do I get rid of that .nsf part:
www.example.com/page-name
I don't want to do lots of manual re-direct because my pages are dynamically formed like wordpress.
I've read this: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/lotus/library/ls-Web_site_rules/
It does not address the issue.
If you use substitution rules like the following, you can get rid of the db.nsf part and call your XPages directly as example.com/xpage1.xsp:
Rule (substitution): /db.nsf/* -> /db.nsf/*
Rule (substitution): /* -> /db.nsf/*
However, you have to "manually" generate your URLs without the db.nsf part in e.g. menus because the XPages runtime will include the db.nsf part in the URLs if you use for instance the openPage simple action.
To completely control what is going in and out put your Domino behind an Apache HTTP and use mod_rewrite. On Domino 9.0 Windows you can use mod_domino
You can do it with a mix of subsitutions, "URL-pattern" and paritial refresh.
I had the same problem, my customers wants clean URLs for SEO.
My URLs now looks like these:
www.myserver.de/products/financesoftware/anyproduct
First i used one subsitution to cover the folder, database and xpage part of the URL.
My substitution: "/products" -> "/web/techdemo.nsf/product.xsp"
Problem with these is, any update on this site (with in redirect mode) and the user gets back the "dirty" URL.
I solved this with the use of paritial refreshes only.
Last but not least, i uses my own slash pattern at the end of the xpage call (.xsp)
In my case thats the "/financesoftware/anyproduct/" part.
I used facesContext.getExternalContext().getRequestPathInfo() to resolve that URL part.
Currently i used good old RegExp to get the slash separated parameters back out of the url, but i am investigating a REST solution at the moment.
I haven't actually done this, but just saw the option yesterday while looking for something else. In your Xpage, go to All Properties, and look at 'navigationRules' and 'pageBaseUrl'. I think you will find what you are looking for there.
We send out a newsletter that has URLs in it. Rather than having foreign URLs directly, they all come to our website and then redirect to the outside world.
Right now the redirects are all done with HTML files. My goal is to have them all done with redirects in the .htaccess file. So I want to have the person who is entering all of this data enter it all through the movable type GUI.
My questions:
Is there is plug-in for movable type that already does this?
If not, is there a good template for creating a movable type that allows one to records in the MySQL database?
Thanks.
This could be done in the standard Entry interface in MT. Just dedicate a blog for these redirects. You could make the EntryTitle the redirect and have the EntryBody be the full URL (or use Custom Fields). Then just create an .htaccess template that loops through all the entries.
<mt:Entries lastn="0">
Redirect /<mt:EntryTitle dirify="-"> <mt:EntryBody>
</mt:Entries>
The way I would do this is to create a custom field for the outside URL.
Then I would populate the .htaccess file with something like:
Redirect /
In the above coding, I'm looping through the latest 999 entries and I'm checking if the custom field with the tag 'EntryDataMyCustomField' is filled out.
If it is filled out, then I redirect / to the URL from that custom template.
This is like redirecting say:
/234 to whatever URL you may think of, like say:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page
