I have a page showing the products with the hyperlink for it as
www.domainname.com/productname
now my client needs to add store and needs the URL to show as
www.domainname.com/store/productname
I have done it via code and now when I click on it for a detail page, its still redirecting to
www.domainname.com/productname
but need to be
www.domainname.com/store/productname
tried with this: RewriteRule ^store/?$ domina.com/?$ [NC,L] in .htaccess file, not sure whether I'm on page
Can any one tell me how to do it via .htaccess file.
Thanks in advance.
Try this :
RewriteRule ^store/(.*)/?$ http://domain.com/store/$1 [R,L,NC]

I'm a beginner.
What I want
the request URL .../activity/1415/abcdefgh/ to be rewritten to .../activity/gallery.php?k=abcdefgh
but still display the URL to the visitor as .../activity/1415/abcdefgh/.
But when I try, the URL .../activity/1415/abcdefgh/ turned to .../activity/1415/abcdefgh/?k=abcdefgh.
The page displays fine, but I want to hide the query.
Basically what happened
Link says: http://localhost/activity/1516/iolfpqwx
Clicked link
Address bar says: http://localhost/activity/1516/iolfpqwx/?key=iolfpqwx, which I don't want.
My entire .htaccess in the activity/ directory:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(\d{4})/(\w{8,})(?:/([\w\s]+)?)?$ gallery.php?key=$2 [L,QSA,NC]
My Specs:
XAMPP on Windows with Apache
What I know
I have not setup any redirect rules on my testing server, so I don't believe I have any [R] flags.
I have a similar .htaccess in an adjacent directory with the code RewriteRule ^settings/([^/]+)/*$ index.php?p=settings&s=$1 [L,QSA,NC] and it didn't show me query strings.
I've Googled my issue, but cannot find a solution. Please help.

Your RewriteRule is backwards: you need the path you're matching first, then the path you're redirecting to. Try this:
RewriteRule !^/store/(.*) /store/$1 [NC,L]
Also, you don't actually need mod_rewrite to do this. You could try mod_redirect, which is simpler and easier to understand:
RedirectMatch !^/store/ /store/
(N.B. I haven't tried either of these, so I'm not 100% certain they do what you want.)
I have this url:
http://localhost/search/
This returns me this file:
http://localhost/search.html
Now I want the urls with this structure:
http://localhost/search/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?
will redirect me to the search.html file too. But without changing the url.
For example with this urls:
http://localhost/search/women/23/shoes/
http://localhost/search/
http://localhost/search/man/45/shirt/
would return the same file:
http://localhost/search.html
Note: the urls of man and women does not has any existing path in the server.
Any advice or help would be appreciated. If you need more info, let me know and I'll edit the post.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^search/ /search.html
Will just work fine. Unless you explicitly request an external redirect, a RewriteRule on the same domain will not do one, thus not changing the URL visible in the browser.
if you don't need the rest of url then you can use this
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^search/(.*)$ /search.html [L]
if you need to other parameters of url then let me know
edited version, Niels Keurentjes has a point if you don't need the rest of url
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^search /search.html
Just building a site using php. I would like to know how to create pages without having to make ".php" links for every page. For example I want to build the site to be as follows: www.mysite.com/products instead of www.mysite.com/products.php. (Further example www.mysite.com/products/headphones )
An example of what I am looking for is as follows: http://www.starbucks.ca/store-locator
Any idea how starbucks is doing this? It isn't making a separate folder and index for every page is it?
Thanks in advance!

You can use URL rewriting to do this. You can create a .htaccess file, place it in the root directory of your website with the following content (as an example):
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^tutorial/([0-9]+)/$ index.php?tutorial=$1
RewriteRule ^page/store-locator/$ index.php?page=store-locator
RewriteRule ^$ index.php
These are some basic rules that tell the web server to rewrite a URL without .php to a URL that does have .php.
In the above example, when you are visiting example.com/tutorial/3/, it will actually visit example.com/index.php?tutorial=3 and then your index.php will display the contents. It's similar for the store-locator page.
I've added a .htaccess file to my root folder for the purposes of rewriting dynamic URLs into static ones. This seems to have been done successfully but I am having problems with page numbers.
For example, if you were to visit a static page /widgets, the first page of the products is fine....but subsequent pages show up as /products.php?cat=27&pg=2 etc. What I want is for subsequent pages to be in the form of /widgets-pg2 or /widgets?pg=2.
Below is my rewrite rule that I used for the initial category page:-
RewriteRule ^widgets$ products.php?cat=27
If any of you experts can help with this, it would be much appreciated.
Are you expecting the cat to change as well? You'd need to account for that in your URL as well:
e.g. www.site.com/widgets/27/2 could be rewritten as:
RewriteRule ^widgets/([0-9]+)/([0-9]+)$ products.php?cat=$1&pg=$2
If widgets will always be cat 27 then you can change it to:
RewriteRule ^widgets$ products.php?cat=27 [QSA]
which is query string append
Try
RewriteRule ^widgets-pg(.+)$ products.php?cat=27&pg=$1
After that, go here :)
To allow a query string after your rewritten URL use the [QSA] flag:
RewriteRule ^widgets$ products.php?cat=27 [QSA]
A link would than be:
http://example.org/widgets?pg=167&perpage=100&tralala=Hi!
I tried the following but it resulted in a '404 Not Found' error when I go to /widgets:-
RewriteRule ^widgets-pg(.+)$ products.php?cat=27&pg=$1
And I tried the following:-
RewriteRule ^widgets$ products.php?cat=27 [QSA]
This worked correctly but to go to page two of the widgets page, I need to type in the browser:-
/widgets?pg=2
But the actual 'page 2' link still leads to:-
products.php?cat=27&pg=2
So apart from a rewrite rule....maybe I need a separate redirection rule? Or maybe need to change the page number links. But since these are dynamically generated, I'm not sure how to do this.
The following is the PHP code for the page:- http://freetexthost.com/3ubiydspzm
