I have URLs like
www.domain-name.com/in/landline-phones.html
www.domain-name.com/in/computer-storage.html
www.domain-name.com/in/furniture.html
and so on, more than 200 URLs
"/in/" in URL is not static, this may be usa, uk any country code.
In .htacess, I need rules to call below URL format. "source=seo_url" is static
www.domain-name.com/search?country=in&source=seo_url&keyword=landline-phones.html
www.domain-name.com/search?country=in&source=seo_url&keyword=computer-storage.html
www.domain-name.com/search?country=in&source=seo_url&keyword=furniture.html
and so on for all URLs
What I have done already:
www.domain-name.com/furniture.html
Below is the rule I have used
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$ search.php?keyword=$1
Please advice.
You need to have two matching groups for your url try below rule
Edit
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule ^([\w]+)/([\w-]+).html$ test2.php?country=$1&source=seo_url&keyword=$2.html [L]

I know this is very common question but I can't seem find any solution regarding in my problem. The folder structure looks like this:
- rootProject
- subfolder
* .htaccess
* index.php
Normal url params: http://website.com/subfolder/?dynamicKey=dynamicValue.
But What I want to achieve is like this: http://website.com/subfolder/dynamicKey/dynamicValue
But I failed to do that, I can only retrieve the dynamicKey.
Here is my current htaccess:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([a-z]+)/?$ index.php?$1 [NC,QSA,L]
Thanks to #Ar Rakin. Here is the solution.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([a-z]+)/?$ index.php?$1 [NC,QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^([a-z]+)/([a-z]+)/?$ index.php?$1=$2 [NC,QSA,L]
With your shown samples and attempted code, please try following htaccess rules. We need to add conditional checks before rewrite rules else later it will affect your existing pages also.
Make sure to clear your browser cache before testing your URLs.
RewriteEngine On
##Added conditions if non-existing pages requested then only perform rewrite.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([a-z]+)/?$ index.php?$1 [NC,QSA,L]
##Added conditions if non-existing pages requested then only perform rewrite.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([a-z]+)/([a-z]+)/?$ index.php?$1=$2 [NC,QSA,L]
NOTE: your used regex [a-z] will only match small letters in uri, in case it needed to check any alphabets(capital OR small) then change FROM [a-z] TO [a-zA-Z] in above rules also.
I have theses URLs
http://www.website.com/?goto=plaforms
http://www.website.com/?goto=offers&platform=dates
http://www.website.com/?goto=profile&member=1
http://www.website.com/?goto=product&offer=2
I want to change them using .htaccess to be like this:
http://www.website.com/plaforms
http://www.website.com/offers/dates
http://www.website.com/profile/1
http://www.website.com/product/2
I've tried this but not working
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/?$ index.php?goto=$1
Honestly I have no clue how to do it.
UPDATE:
I have an index.php in which I call all pages
index.php
$page = $_GET['goto'];
$url = $page.'.php';
if(file_exists($url)):
include($url);
else:
header('location:'?goto=home');
endif;
The 1st param ?goto= calls for pages and the second param call data from database
You could write rewrite rules like these:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
#The rules
RewriteRule ^([^\/]+)?$ /?goto=$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^offers\/dates$ /?goto=offers&platform=dates [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^profile\/(\d+)$ /?goto=profile&member=$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^product\/(\d+)$ /?goto=product&offer=$1 [R=301,L]
The problem is some of the parameter values can not be derived from your fancy URLs. Therefore, you have to spell them out fully (like /offers/dates) or partially like /profile/x and /product/x). The only really generic rule is the first one that rewrites anything /xxx to goto=xxx. So, depending on y our URL space you may have to write a lot of rules.
I am working on a site where I have many short URLs which is redirected to a bigger version of URL. The idea is that the short URLs are distributed offline and users generally remembers them and types in the browser address bar. As example:
http://www.example.com/abc should redirect to http://www.example.com/higher_education/companion/politics/abc.html
Also there are some external links as well. like: http://www.example.com/google will redirect user to https://www.google.com
EDIT -
There is another scenario where http://www.example.com/elementary/def.html will be redirected to http://www.example.com/elementary/xyz.html
However, we now want to achieve this with RewriteMap. The code that we've written for that is as below:
<IfModule rewrite_module>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteMap custommap txt:/var/www/vhosts/example.com/httpdocs/map.txt
#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/index.php$
RewriteRule "^(.*)$" "${custommap:$0}" [R,L,NC]
</IfModule>
The map.txt contains:
abc http://www.example.com/higher_education/companion/politics/abc.html
google https://www.google.com
The problem is .htaccss file contains also some RewriteRule.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)/(.*)\.html$ /index.php?sid=$1&ssid=$2 [L,NC,QSA]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.html$ /index.php?sid=$1 [L,NC,QSA]
So any request comes with .html will be served by index.php as standard CMS feature. However, now the code goes into redirect loop.
If someone shares some light in order to mitigate this issue then that would be great. The Apache version is 2.2 so I can't use any IF-ELSE in that.

You should put some restrictions on the rule serving URLs from RewriteMap:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond ${custommap:$0} !^$
RewriteRule ^[^.]+$ ${custommap:$0} [R=301,L,NE]
This will ensure only non-files and non-directories with no DOT in URI will be handled by custommap.
More importantly it will also check existence of a mapping in custommap before redirecting.
Make sure you clear your browser cache before testing this change.
In general, I am trying to understand how .htaccess works. I would highly appreciate it if anyone points me in the right direction. I have been trying to make the following url (with optional parameters) pretty.
mysite/v1.0/foldername
mysite/v1.0/foldername/param1/
mysite/v1.0/foldername/param1/param2/etc
I tried the following:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)/?$ foldername.php [QSA,L]
the problem is that when I get it to pass the parameters it can no longer get the resources. It seems to have changed directory.
.htaccess is in foldername
Also, I would like to know what site i can go to to learn about REQUEST_URI, REQUEST_FILENAME, etc. A site that is not too technical as it's the apache site.
You are incorrectly rewriting the rules correct rule according to your need would be like,
RewriteEngine On
# rule for removing extension
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^([\w-]+)/?$ $1.php [QSA,L]
# below cond means incoming url is nor a file neither a directory
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
# actual rules
RewriteRule ^([\w-]+)/([\w-]+)/?$ $1.php?param1=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^([\w-]+)/([\w-]+)/([\w-]+)/?$ $1.php?param1=$2¶m2=$3 [L]

i am trying to create an .htaccess file that will achieve the following
create a clean url like this www.mydomain.com/About-Us with page page.php?title=About Us
query a database with the parameters passed on the url like this www.mydomain.com/?search=abc and it pulls to page index.php?search=abc
this is my code so far
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^?search=([0-9]*)$ index.php?id=$1 ## e.g www.mydomain.com/?search=try
RewriteRule ^([A-Z]*)$ page.php?name=$1
## www.mydomain.com/About-Us
##ErrorDocument 404 PageNotavailabale
####Protect the system from machines with worms
RewriteRule (cmd|root)\.exe - [F,E=dontlog:1]
#### To hold and redirect css/images/js files
RewriteRule images/(.+)?$ images/$1 [NC,L]
RewriteRule css/(.+)?$ css/$1 [NC,L]
RewriteRule js/(.+)?$ js/$1 [NC,L]
Why not using this kind of url for your search engine : www.domain.com/search/abc ?
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^search/([a-zA-Z0-9]+)$ index.php?search=$1
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9]+)$ index.php?page=$1
Then, your access your pages with www.domain.com/<myPage>.
And your search engine with www.domain.com/search/<mySearch>
EDIT :
Please notice your rules doesn't allow a lot of params :
^?search=([0-9]*)$ allows only numbers (even an empty parameter)
^([A-Z]*)$ allows only uppercase letters (and also empty parameter)
