I'm totally clueless when it comes to mod_rewrite, so I'll be glad to get any help. I just want Apache to redirect my homepage according to the detected country language. My PHP is auto-translating in multiple languages and I'm trying to avoid multiplying the same exact Site to subdomains and domains because of SEO - but looks like Google is not so advanced yet, giving no other choice.
e.g.
mysite.com to:
mysite.com/index.php?lang=nl for holland
mysite.com/index.php?lang=fr for france
and for no specified country code just to:
mysite.com/index.php?lang=be
mysite.com/?lang=nl wwould also be fine
I'll also be happy to hear a better suggestion.
I tried the following with no succes
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Accept-Language} ^nl[NC]
RewriteRule ^index\.html /index\.php?lang=nl [QSA,NC,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Accept-Language} ^fr[NC]
RewriteRule ^index\.html /index\.php?lang=fr [QSA,NC,L]
I'm just getting a server error - Couldn't find an exact case that could help
Try with:
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Accept-Language} ^(nl|fr) [NC]
RewriteRule ^(index\.html)?$ /index.php?lang=%1 [QSA,NC,L]
RewriteRule ^(index\.html)?$ /index.php?lang=be [QSA,NC,L]

It's been a while since I've been busting my head to do a htaccess rewrite.
I would like to redirect all the pages from example.com/en/XXX to example.com/en.
I'm doing either redirection loops or errors 500.
Is it possible to help me to find the right formula?
I tried RewriteRule ^en/(.+)$ /en/ L,QSA
also this RewriteRule ^/en\/.*$ http://example.com/en/$1 [R=permanent,L]
Do you also know good links to learn htaccess and rewrite?
thank you in advance for your help
You need to put a condition to stop Looping, could you please try following once, base on your shown samples only.
RewriteEngine ON
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/en/.*/?$ [NC] [L]
RewriteRule ^(en)/.*$ http://example.com/$1 [NC,L]
Merci RaVinder pour ton aide ! <3
This should be rather simple, but after trying for several hours and also searching everywhere, all the related answers do not suffice.
I have this so far:
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /([a-zA-Z0-9-_/\.]+)?
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ - [E=TRGT:%1]
What the match should be doing is the following:
for URL example.com it should contain nothing, or not be defined
for URL example.com/ it should contain nothing, or not be defined
for URL example.com/some-word it should contain some-word
for URL example.com/some-word/ it should contain some-word
for URL example.com/some-word/?foo=bar it should contain some-word
for URL example.com/another_word/ it should contain another_word
for URL example.com/folder/file.ext it should contain folder/file.ext
for URL example.com/some/other.dot?bar=foo it should contain some/other.dot
for URL example.com/thing.ext/?foo=bar&bar=foo it should contain thing.ext
What I have so far seems to be working, except for when the request ends in some/ -or some/?thing=wat .. then it contains some/
I think I'm missing something really simple; any help will be appreciated, thank you.
UPDATE
I've managed to achieve these exact requirements with the following code, but, after trying many ways to do it in a 1-liner it fails horribly, so I did it in several lines:
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} (?<=\s)(.*?)(?=\s)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ - [E=HREFPATH:%1]
RewriteCond %{ENV:HREFPATH} (^.*)?\?
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ - [E=HREFPATH:%1]
RewriteCond %{ENV:HREFPATH} /(.*)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ - [E=HREFPATH:%1]
RewriteCond %{ENV:HREFPATH} (.*)/$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ - [E=HREFPATH:%1]
If anybody can reduce that to a s3xy 1(or 2)-liner I will choose your answer; thanks in advance.
Based on the accepted answer here the following fulfills the requirements of the question:
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/+([^?]*?)/*[\s?]
RewriteRule ^ - [E=HREFPATH:%1]
I have a good reason to do this. I feel this is the most cost effective way of providing an update.
This is my current url structure
/ <-- Contains Website
/cart
/cms
Boss wants the client to have an option to forego the website and instead load the cart in place of the website. The system is fairly old, the website and cart are completely different systems. We host a lot of websites from this single system. Configuring 2 systems for 2 different websites types will involve too much maintenence.
The least work solution would be to rewrite the /cart into /. I came up with the following.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/cart/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/cms/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ cart/$1
This returns a server error. Adding /cart/$1 on the final line does work. I need this to work when the system isn't installed in the root directory. Does anyone know how to fix this?
You can use this rule:
RewriteEngine On
# Determine the RewriteBase automatically
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI}::$1 ^(.*?/)(.*)::\2$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ - [E=BASE:%1]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/(cart|cms)/ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ %{ENV:BASE}cart/$1 [L]
I've got a magento install that is using the htaccess mod_geoip to redirect people from specific countries to other store fronts. It's working like a charm (after I got it to ignore javascript and skin files), but I'm going to be having someone from Australia input some orders into the backend of magento.
The issue is that they can't access the main backend at store/index.php/admin (they are rewritten to austore/index.php/admin) and when they go to put orders in, they are missing some integral components of the order process which I think is due to the url being rewritten to austore/index.php/admin. Wondering if there is a way that if the request uri is store/index.php/admin that they won't get rewritten. My code is below from my htaccess:
RewriteRule ^(skin|js) - [L,NC]
RewriteCond %{ENV:GEOIP_COUNTRY_CODE} ^(AQ|AU|MY|BV|BN|BN|MM|KH|CN|CX|CC|CK|GQ|FJ|PF|GU|GW|HM|HK|ID|KI|KR|KP|KR|LA|MO|MY|MH|FM|MM|NR|NC|PG|NZ|NU|NF|PG|CN|PH|PN|WS|SG|SB|KR|LK|BN|TW|TW|AU|TH|TL|TK|TO|TV|VU|VN|VN|WF)$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/store(/.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /austore%1 [L,R]
Thanks for the help!
Taken from this, http://www.sonassi.com/knowledge-base/magento-kb/secure-your-magento-admin/ you can use the same rewrite logic in what you want to do.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/store/(index.php/)?(admin|custom_extensions_go_here)/ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/store/downloader/ [NC]
RewriteCond %{ENV:GEOIP_COUNTRY_CODE} ^(AQ|AU|MY|BV|BN|BN|MM|KH|CN|CX|CC|CK|GQ|FJ|PF|GU|GW|HM|HK|ID|KI|KR|KP|KR|LA|MO|MY|MH|FM|MM|NR|NC|PG|NZ|NU|NF|PG|CN|PH|PN|WS|SG|SB|KR|LK|BN|TW|TW|AU|TH|TL|TK|TO|TV|VU|VN|VN|WF)$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/store(/.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /austore%1 [L,R]
Just bear in mind, doing this through .htaccess could potentially cause some bizarre issues in the long run with 3rd party extensions, that have custom admin routes (that are not prefixed with /admin) break. So just be mindful of this.
I would advocate the use of a Magento extension (PHP based), mod_geoip store switcher - as then you can make it apply only to the frontend area of the Magento store (to prevent the potential errors I've described above)
For my website i want to rewrite my url to:
www.xxx.com/en/index.php instead of www.xxx.com/index.php?language=en
www.xxx.com/nl/index.php instead of www.xxx.com/index.php?language=nl
www.xxx.com should be www.xxx.com/en/
This actually works i have added these rewrite rules
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} ^www\.xxx\.com(\/?)$
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.xxx.com/en/$1 [R=302,L]
RewriteRule ^(nl|en)/(.*)$ $2?language=$1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
The R=302 is added for testing purposes
Are the above given RewriteCond and RewriteRule good enough or are there other, maybe shorter or better ways to rewrite .com/ to .com/en/
If the url is edited to a language that does not exists i want this user to be redirect to english.
Example
www.xxx.com/es/index.php is requested, this language does not exists or no language is given i want the user to be redirect to www.xxx.com/en/index.php
I tried the following:
RewriteRule ^([^n][^l]|[^e][^n])/(.*)$ en/$2%{QUERY_STRING} [L,R=302]
This works in some cases but if www.xxx.com/ne/index.php is entered it is considered as valid and not rewritten. www.xxx.com/index.php is also not rewritten to www.xxx.com/en/index.php
Could someone help me to fix this?
Thanks in advance!
Try this rule:
RewriteCond $1 !^(en|nl)$
RewriteRule ^([a-z]{2})/(.*)$ en/$2 [L,R=302]
