I am a new bee and I want to redirect following URL
m.site.com/subfolder/index.php?user=xxx
to a search engine frendly url like below using .htacess mode rewrite
m.site.com/subfolder/xxx
please explain me the correct way
You can use in the .htaccess file, in the subfolder (It is important):
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^user=(.+)$
RewriteRule ^ %1? [R=302,L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?user=$1 [L]
Change R=302 for R=301 when test work well.

How can I add the Google translate parameter #googtrans(en|de) or other language, so the translation happens automatically?
Basically, when the user goes to https://example.com/page/?lang=de they are redirected to https://example.com/page/?lang=en#googtrans(en|de)
I use this .htaccess rule, but it's not working:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^lang=([a-z]{2})$
RewriteRule ^/?lang=en#googtrans(en|[a-z]{2}) [R=301,L]
EDIT: Adding edited Rules here.
RewriteEngine ON
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/page/?\?lang=([a-z]{2})\s [NC]
RewriteRule ^ page/?lang=%1#googtrans(%1) [R=301,L,NE]
With your shown samples(this is considering that you are hitting URL like: https://example.com/page/?lang=de in browser), please try following .htaccess Rules file. Please make sure to clear your browser cache before testing your URLs.
RewriteEngine ON
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^lang=([a-z]{2})$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^page/?$ page/?lang=%1#googtrans(%1) [R=301,L,NE]
Alright so I have done the process of cleaning up my urls and everything is going good I put the following in my htaccess.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)\.html$ /l/index.php?mp3=$1&img=http://www.dailynewsounds.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/tinashe-5535799554a1b-3.jpg&g=R\%26amp\%3BB&p=8\%20hours\%20ago&s=+Energy&a=Tinashe+Ft.+Juicy+J+ [L]
And this works to change my urls but we have our nasty urls directing to the pages.
http://dl.example.com/l/index.php?mp3=oo8aey7qw3n9&img=http://www.example.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/stuey-rock-ft-sy-ari-da-kid-569e83c69cf5e.jpeg&g=R%26amp%3BB&p=10%20hours%20ago&s=+Me+And+You&a=Stuey+Rock+Ft.+Sy+Ari+Da+Kid+
How can I make it so that I can check my url to see if it contains index.php and if it does redirect it to the new page?
Try the following rules:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^GET\ /l/index\.php\?\S*mp3=\S* [NC]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} \bmp3=([^\s&]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1.html? [R=301,L]
If you're using Apache 2.4.x, then replace the L] with L,QSD].
I would like to remove part of the url of my Joomla site and redirect to another url for example
www.example.com/xxx/yyy/zzz/FAQ
www.example.com/123/456/FAQ
to
www.example.com/FAQ
I'm very new to mod_rewrite in .htacesss
what RewriteRule can I write to achive this
thank you
Try this in root/htaccess
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /xx/yy/zz/([^\s]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1? [NC,L,R]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ /xx/yy/zz/$1 [NC,L]
And the same rule can be used to rewrite /123/456/faq to /123/456/FAq , just change the rewrite target and the pattern in first Rewritecond.
$1 is part of the regex in rewrite rule, its the part matched between (.+) ,it contains uri.
Thank you, after I tried I finally got it working
this is my solution
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^.*/FAQ$ /FAQ [L,R=301]
by doing this I remove everything between the URL and FAQ
www.abc.com/SOMETHING/SOMETHING2/FAQ
and redirect the URL to
www.abc.com/FAQ
I also found a nice tool to test the mod_rewrite code
http://htaccess.madewithlove.be/
I'm not sure if it is possible but I want rewrite old URLs to new style and if someone will access the old URL i want to 301 redirect him to new URL style
OLD URL: /catalogue/category/some-category-page
NEW URL: /some-category-page/category
Also what I need is to pass REQUEST_URI to PHP script
I've got something like this but its not working (recursion):
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^catalogue/category/(.+)$ /$1/category [R=301,L] # this is bad I know
RewriteRule ^(.+)/category?$ /catalogue/category/$1 [P]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule !\.(pdf|js|ico|gif|jpg|png|css|rar|zip|tar\.gz)$ index.php?modrewrited=%{REQUEST_URI} [QSA,L]
Thank you for help.
If your PHP script needs to read from $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], the you need to make sure mod_proxy is loaded. Except that causes a redirect loop. You need to have your first rule which redirects check the actual request variable. So instead of:
RewriteRule ^catalogue/category/(.+)$ /$1/category [R=301,L] # this is bad I know
you want:
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \ /+catalogue/category/([^\ \?]+)
RewriteRule ^ /%1/category [L,R=301]
I tried some of the other answers I could find in here, but it didn't work out. It's really simple though.
I want
/page?id=PAGENAME
to be accessible AND redirected to
/PAGENAME
Can you help me?
EDIT:
It feels like my already messed-up .htaccess file needs to be included in here. I already have basic rewriting enabled, but this feature is needed for two other "special pages". In the requested solution above, I would therefore just replace "page" with the two pagenames (it's danish names, so I thought it was easier this way).
Currently I have this. If you have any improvements to it, it's appreciated - but I just want this to work with the requested solution aswell.

Generally the URL in address bar should be like
www.siteurl.com/pagename/ for seo purpose and then read this url from .htaccess using rule which gives this query string parameter values in your php file.
.htaccess rule can be like
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /page?id=$1 [QSA,L]
It looks like you are wanting to implement "friendly" (or "pretty") URLs, making the URLs more friendly for you users (search engines don't really mind what your URLs look like).
The first step is to change all your on-page links to use the new "friendly" URL. So, you links should all be of the form /pagename (not /page?id=PAGENAME).
Then, in .htaccess, you need to internally rewrite this "friendly" URL into the real URL that your server understands. This can be done using mod_rewrite. In the .htaccess file in your document root:
# Enable the rewrite engine
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
# Rewrite the "friendly" URL back to the real URL
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !^id=
RewriteRule ^([\w-]*) /page?id=$1 [L]
If the file does not exist (!-f) and does not contain the id URL param then internally rewrite the request from /<pagename> to /page?id=<pagename>. This assumes your <pagename> consists only of the characters a-z, A-Z, 0-9, _ and -.
If this is a new site and the old URLs are not already indexed or referenced by external sites then you can stop here.
However, if you are changing an existing URL structure then you also need to externally redirect the real (ugly) URL to the "friendly" URL before the above internal rewrite. (This is actually what you are asking in your question.) In order to prevent a rewrite loop we can check against %{THE_REQUEST} (which does not change when the URL is rewritten).
# Redirect real URLs to "friendly" URLs
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \?id=([\w-]*)
RewriteRule ^page$ /%1? [R=302,L]
Change the 302 (temporary) to 301 (permanent) when you are sure this is working OK. Permanent redirects are cached by the browser so can make testing a problem.
So, in summary, with the above two parts shown together:
# Enable the rewrite engine
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
# Redirect real URLs to "friendly" URLs
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \?id=([\w-]*)
RewriteRule ^page$ /%1? [R=302,L]
# Rewrite the "friendly" URL back to the real URL
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !^id=
RewriteRule ([\w-]*) /page?id=$1 [L]
The order of directives is important. External redirects should nearly always come before internal rewrites.
UPDATE#1:
I want /concept?id=NAME to go to /NAME and /studio?id=NAME to go to /NAME - there's 5-10 different "pages" from both concept and studio. [Corrected according to later comment]
Since id=NAME maps to /NAME you can achieve all 10-20 redirects with just a single rule:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^id=(NAME|foo|bar|baz|abc|def|ghi)
RewriteRule ^(concept|studio)$ /%1? [R,L]
This will redirect a URL such as /studio?id=foo to /foo.
As with all external redirects this should be one of the first rules in your .htaccess file.
Change R to R=301 when you have tested that it is working OK.
To make this more "dynamic", ie. match any "NAME" then change the CondPattern, for example:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^id=([\w-]*)
UPDATE#2:
If the path part of the URL (ie. concept or studio) is required then you can modify the RewriteRule substitution like so:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^id=([\w-]*)
RewriteRule ^(concept|studio)$ /$1/%1? [R,L]
Which will redirect /concept?id=foo to /concept/foo.
Or, to be completely "dynamic" (bearing in mind this will now capture anything):
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^id=([\w-]*)
RewriteRule ^([\w-]+)$ /$1/%1? [R,L]
